We are using XT135 tooling prepreg moulds for making XC110 component prepreg parts.
Before laminating with XC110, we apply Easy-Lease Release Agent. We do not use other release agents. We know that Easy-Lease Release Agent does not have to be removed after demoulding. Since the prepreg process is relatively aggressive it is likely that applying Easy-Lease Release Agent prior to laminating with XC110 is optimal.

We are unsure where in the above production process Easy-Lease Mould Cleaner would fit in.
Does it make sense, from time to time, to remove all of the previous Easy-Lease Release Agent applications to prevent build up (which could reduce dimensional accuracy)?
Or should Easy-Lease Mould Cleaner be used when the mould is contaminated by a finger print for example (resulting in inferior surface quality of the final prepreg part)?
Or should Easy-Lease Mould Cleaner be used regularily in order to remove small particles like dust which are trapped in Easy-Lease Release Agent residues (which could reduce surface quality of the final prepreg part)?

Yeh the cleaner will chew latex gloves quick smart. With nitrite gloves you will have maybe 5 minutes.

The only type of gloves that can resist these types of solvent are laminated film gloves, which are MIGHTY expensive. Talking $200 a pair. Best to just work quickly!
