Ok thought id start small just to test it It took 5 mins with a UV lamp to cure Hardly any smell and not sticky to touch This was something i did very very quick, This is just one layer. And unlike the way you can bend fibreglass and it cracks. THIS DOES NOT CRACK:)    |

Easy as hell for corner and any mental areas just cut and trim and it bonds to the other parts, Release agent your standard gelcoat /pva glue. Bt unlike me I forgot BUT it still came of easy with a twist and no breaks or cracks Surface finish if you take you time. PERFECT smooth Stronger than carbon fibre And it bends Price £130 this gets you 10 metres x 65 inches details goldie, details!? price, ease of use, ability to mould tight corners, lay up technique, release agents, strength, surface finish, gelcoat? need answers please! don't want to wait until i get your sample!

Goldie what is the equivalent wet lay-up?? Most of us who do hand lay do 3 layers of 2 OZ matt or 4 layers of 1.5 oz matt which will yield laminate between 1/4 and 3/8 inch. How many layers of this will you have to do to get that thickness? |

2 layers will give you a very very solid part. 2/3 layers and iot doesnt move:), Just doing another part now with 2 layers so will let you know how thick it gets Easy as hell for corner and any mental areas just cut and trim and it bonds to the other parts, Release agent your standard gelcoat /pva glue.
