Hi,

I use Uni-mould and I love it but my neighbour complains because of the smell.
What would be an alternative? EC epoxy mould?

Will EC green epoxy fix my issue?
How to reinforce epoxy moulds? Can I use CSM and IN2?

I plan to make CF infused with IN2 and or without GC50, twaron, prepegs and natural fibres.

Thanks for your advices.

I use EC green and IN2 for the majority of my moulds.

It is almost vapour less, you can use it in the house with no problems.

The IN2 doesn't get on too well with csm so I use 200gram glass woven mate and this works very well, I'd say its much easier to use than uni BUT you have a few issues in that.




1- you have to do the mould in one, as you need to apply each layer once the green hits a tack, there may be work arounds but ive found it best to do the whole lot in one go.

2- I don't believe the green and IN2 can be used for pre preg do to temperature limits, it will work for infusion but would be at or above its limits with pre peg.
GO
