Hi guys!
I'm beginner laminator so I will be appretiate you for you help.
I have a round shaped mold. There is common 2 plies of 200 g 4H satin carbon fabric and extra 4 plies on the other area (support area).
I have no idea how to impregnate this one by minimal quantity of resin. I guess I need at least two points of resin feed. One of this needed to be in the geometrical center of support area.
Thanks

You could also consider just a wet layup with vacuum bagging using perf film and breather etc as this will be much easier for a beginner than the infusion, would still have good resin ration but may not be the 100% cosmetic finish you want?

I may not be understanding right but my suggestions would be to place the feed line over (or along the edge if you're worried about printing - or pull the spiral wrap up in a pleat before it gels) th...
