hi guys,
i'd like to ask you if somebody has some experience with Diolen and with his look after coating.
After applying of top coat I am observing an unequal pattern or texture on surface from Diolen. Diolen fabrics itself looks good but after applying of top coat some strings of fibre
are darker than others. The more top coats the worst effect.
steps in skinning:
- black base coat then diolen
- 1st layer of top coat >>> images 1st layer.jpg
- 2nd layer of top coat + Lacquer >>> images 2nd layer

on pictures are different parts of skinned parts.
when I used only 1st layer of top coat the lines are visible but not so much.
after applying of 2nd layer the "lines" are visible too much.

Could it be a faulty Diolen product?
I tried to apply top coat with brush and also with plastic card but still with the same effect.

any help or advice is more than appreciated.
thank you very much

Hi Ondrej,

 you will have to talk to your supplier about that, I know that this effect has never been seen on Diolen supplied by us. 

I hope you get it sorted.

Sorry Paul but I have to disagree with you there, last year I ordered some diolen last year from easy composites and after infusing it (single layer, EC epoxy infusion resin) found a similar fault.

I didn't complain as I managed to work around it at the time but just wanted to make you aware it seems to have been widespread





I believe I still have some on the roll  that I kept for emergency if you would like some back to inspect?
