Hii guys,

I have working with carbon fibre parts over than a years but I've still strugle to have a shinny mould and also the parts, I mean after demoulds.  I never buffing the wax when  make a mould or parts (leave swirl), to emerge the shine surface because based on my experience "shine surface" would be hard to demould. My mould is made from epoxy gel coat, and the process is resin infusion using epoxy resin. 

Soo, how to apply meguiars no 8 to get a slippy demoulds process and shinny composites parts?

Regards

Leon

Hi Leon,
             I will be returning to Indonesia early next year I will look into whether I could fetch some Easy-Lease with me???????
Perhaps the issues you experienced with the bonnet may be because of the layers of polish/wax/dirt already on the surface of the bonnet from use and not with the wax you applied. How did you clean/prepare the bonnet?

Wooww great, yes it would be many thanks if you can fetch some easy-lease with you. now, I'm during to build my worshop to make a boats with infusion at malang-east java.. If you just ever at this town we could take a drink an talk about composites.

I prepare the boonet very carefully and nicely, first I polish the bonnet sufcae, second I applying wax for 3 times then buffing it to emerge the shine, then I apply a clear silicon laquer as a easy-lease  for 3 times. it take a one night before the epoxy gel coar applied. Then the terrible things comes, the boonet stuck on the mould, extremely hard to pull off.

Regards

     Before applying wax you should use polishing compounds for making the mold as glossy as possible....
