Group: Forum Members Posts: 300, Visits: 2.2K	Thanks Warren, Yes a while back I got a roll of the 10m Discounted Carbon Fibre 45 biaxial 300g £13meter I find it works really nice for backing/reinforcing for body panels, it lays up really nice and keeps the cost down a bit ... Managed to get the mould up to 67c for 8 hours and then it cooled to a low of 40c for 8 hours using the heated table, just removed all the insulation and it was still holding the vacuum no breach.

Group: Forum Members Posts: 300, Visits: 2.2K	Could not be happier the pattern on the product came out perfect no slippage, one of my better infusion, I popped it back into the mould for a few days before I start attacking it with the dremel and cutting disks and start preparing for clear coat ... Thanks everyone that shares the knowledge, I would not have been able to make anything like this without you David Stevens YouTube: Comment \| Rate \| Subscribe Instagram Composite Projects Body Package for Dax Rush RC Car Touring Body 1/10 Scale Edited 9 Years Ago by davro
