I have seen some very impressive custome work on this site and the latest had me thinking. If the door panels that I have seen did not require a vac bag, how did they do it. I have worked fiber glass before, and even had access to a vac bag set up when I worked on helos, but not anymore. With the cost of carbon fiber I would like to avoid a steap learning curve, so any info on techniques, amounts and types of materials, would be greatly appreciated. How do you get the pretty finish?

I was surprized whenI polished it how well it brought out the shine.
Jeroen explained the process pretty well for flat work. Try it on a small piece first. (don't tell anyone, but I found almost no differance between working with c/f and f/g) Paul |
