I see the el2 laminating resin is higher than the xcr resin and even more if the slow hardner is used.. I didn't get on with the xcr resin before, pinholes and clear coating it was a nightmare!! Also needs to be bubble free and crystal clear.. My process is tack spray carbon to the piece.. wet it out and then I'm vac bagging the part. Thanks

Thanks HI Just a question regarding the process, you tack spray carbon to the piece, then I presume you use release film the question is how do you prevent the resin from getting underneath the component and basically in places you don't want it to be? thanks
