I'm looking at doing some car body panels which I'd normally lay up with 1x200g / 3mm soric / 1x200g. Thought I might look into other cores as the general consensus is that soric can be a little heavy. The reverse side finish is also quite poor as the cells show through quite strongly. I've been considering core cork as an option as it looks pretty smooth on both sides. For those that have used it can I ask id 1x200g would be enough of a skin with this core? Any others I should consider?
Thanks in advance for the input folks.
