  • KITS! First layer bridging can be significantly reduced if we do the first layer in small pieces, we just need to “hide” the seams in a clever way. Multimatic usually does this by hiding seams on corners and bends, since the light already bends there so it's harder to see it.

  • The release film is crucial for keeping resin content

  • when bagging, set your perimeter, plan your pleats, and then beg everything but the pleats

  • debulk the layup after core to ensure it sticks down.

  • for “gaps” in the core (as present in the A-bulkhead), we can add strips of carbon to “round out” and fill those gaps

  • Use wax instead, 6 coats. If we keep using frekote, then seal the sanded surface first and then add the release, 1 layer of mold sealer to seal everything before mold release

  • Use the better inlets, buy vacometer???

  • Spraytac carbon fiber for infusion to conform it to the mold, make it easier to work with

  • Wider vacuum bags are available (so we dont need to envelope)

  • No labels
