In video tutorial
How to Make a Carbon Fibre Car Bonnet/Hood - Part 2/3
at about 03'22' you are using a spray that helps you to maintain the fabric.
What is it and where can I find it in the webstore ?
thank you

Apparently there is a problem with the manufacturer, it has been showing "out of stock" on the EC website for a couple of months now. I keep asking
for an update on availability but no luck so far.

Thank you wozza,
too bad then,
at least do u know what sort of product is it ? can we use some placeholder ? I find it very handy to help positioning the layers, especially when you have to fine-position a layer.
regards

I bought a product called elmers repositionable spray, it's clear pva light adhesive. If you lightly spray the fabric (not the mould), leave it a minute or two it's ideal. It's tacky enough but not too tacky. I'm using pro finish fabric.

Some people use 3M spray. I talked to a large manufacturer at at a trade show. I asked what they used as a tackifier and to my shock he said they used the cheapest none perfumed hair spray. He bought it by the case.

wooa !
I would be afraid it reacts with the gel coat or the infused resin in an unexpected way, wouldn't you ?
It is why I'd like yo be sure to find a specific product, a neutral product
thanks for the input

Nice to hear of that theory of hairspray.
In addition on that I can say; not to use "normal hobby sprayglue".
Ive tested it and found out it forms a barrier through wich the resin can not pass, leaving dry cloth under it.
