Does the peel ply actualy soak up the resin or does the resin work through the cloth to sit ontop of the peel ply. Can you use the cloth more then once?
The problem I have had is that after I work the resin into the cloth and squeege of the extra resin, the, I get a few voids on the cloth... I have to cut it out.. flox it over and then sand. Those of you that have worked with large pieces of carbon, does it really save that much weight over the standard cloth. 5.9 oz fiberglass vs 3.9 oz carbon.. the difference in the entire piece is about 10-15 oz, is it really worth the extra money? -Jeff >From: "Mike Turner" <aviato...@msn.com> >Reply-To: KRnet <kr...@mylist.net> >To: "KRnet" <kr...@mylist.net> >Subject: Re: KR> Procedure to cover glass cloth on foam. >Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2005 20:52:04 -0500 >MIME-Version: 1.0 >X-Originating-IP: [65.54.161.203] >X-Originating-Email: [aviato...@msn.com] >X-Sender: aviato...@msn.com >Received: from lizard.esosoft.net ([38.118.200.18]) by mc2-f33.hotmail.com >with Microsoft SMTPSVC(6.0.3790.211); Tue, 23 Aug 2005 18:53:00 -0700 >Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1] helo=lizard.esosoft.net)by >lizard.esosoft.net with esmtp (Exim 4.43)id 1E7kRo-0001DR-Anfor >wilder_j...@msn.com; Tue, 23 Aug 2005 18:53:00 -0700 >Received: from bay106-dav9.bay106.hotmail.com ([65.54.161.81] >helo=hotmail.com)by lizard.esosoft.net with esmtp (Exim 4.43) id >1E7kQv-00013D-4Efor kr...@mylist.net; Tue, 23 Aug 2005 18:52:05 -0700 >Received: from mail pickup service by hotmail.com with Microsoft >SMTPSVC;Tue, 23 Aug 2005 18:52:04 -0700 >Received: from 65.54.161.203 by BAY106-DAV9.phx.gbl with DAV;Wed, 24 Aug >2005 01:52:04 +0000 >X-Message-Info: JGTYoYF78jHMGSxvvqv8kPRzFwHUwmvl3BLTWq4Z1Yo= >References: ><000001c5a743$828f6450$7407a8c0@privatevkzwc19><002301c5a768$9b81ce60$1ba772d8@patrusso> >X-MSMail-Priority: Normal >X-Mailer: MSN 9 >X-MIMEOLE: Produced By MSN MimeOLE V9.10.0011.1703 >Seal-Send-Time: Tue, 23 Aug 2005 20:52:04 -0500 >X-OriginalArrivalTime: 24 Aug 2005 01:52:04.0707 >(UTC)FILETIME=[6D729B30:01C5A84E] >X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.4 >X-BeenThere: kr...@mylist.net >X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.4 >Precedence: list >List-Id: KRnet <krnet.mylist.net> >List-Unsubscribe: ><http://mylist.net/listinfo/krnet>,<mailto:krnet-requ...@mylist.net?subject=unsubscribe> >List-Archive: <http://mylist.net/private/krnet> >List-Post: <mailto:kr...@mylist.net> >List-Help: <mailto:krnet-requ...@mylist.net?subject=help> >List-Subscribe: ><http://mylist.net/listinfo/krnet>,<mailto:krnet-requ...@mylist.net?subject=subscribe> >Errors-To: krnet-bounces+wilder_jeff=msn....@mylist.net >Return-Path: krnet-bounces+wilder_jeff=msn....@mylist.net > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: patrusso<mailto:patru...@sover.net> > To: KRnet<mailto:kr...@mylist.net> > Sent: Monday, August 22, 2005 5:26 PM > Subject: Re: KR> Procedure to cover glass cloth on foam. > Dubi > One other aspect of peel ply is that it helps to save over all weight as >you pull it off it removes some of the excess epoxy that you would not >other wise get just by squeege process. > > Mike Turner > Jackson, Missouri > > Dubi > You are correct on all counts.
