With our IN2Epoxy Infusion Resin 10mm is probably about as thick as you want to go with glass, especially if its a tighter plain weave as opposed to the looser twill weaves. A point to note with all thick laminates is you need to slow the infusion down with a line clamp on the resin feed to allow the resin to soak through all the fabric layers. If you let it whizz accross normally then you may well have pin holes, voids and dry patches.
