Hi
Due to complex part etc I am now doing a part with a infusing stage and then another stage
with UD reinforcements, core etc, that I wetlay and bag.
Would the IN2 work for both applications?
The viscosity will not be a big problem as I can store it a little bit cold for the second stage.
But would the cohesion be good? (after light sanding and aceton washing)
Also, if I use fast hardener for the first stage infusion, and slow for the second stage,
would that work?
Or,
IN2 first and then IL2?

Hi, I did some body panels for a race car using Infusion. Once finished they didn't feel quite stiff/rigid enough so I decided to wet lay some soric onto the backs of the panels. I used IN2, the thinking being that it would be totally compatible and being thinner/less viscous it would wet out the soric better. It worked out really well and the finish left by the peel ply makes a perfect bonding surface.
