Polyester does not give you enough open time to place the glass properly
and get the bag sealed and drawn down. The only controls you have are
the temperature and the amount of MEKP and they have to be held to very
exact tollerances.

You can do it with resin infusion but trying to arrange the feed lines
and vacuum ports for even flow is a black art without some guidance.
There are volumes written on the various proprietary processes but the
volumes are not cheap and don't really tell you everything.

If yes, who has done it?

Thank you.


it's far easier to do this with epoxy than poly or vinlyester resins.
MAS makes a slow hardener that can give you as much time as want.
even so, practice on some simple things before doing something
this ambitious. the cost of the epoxy is small compared to
everything else.
