I really do believe that these kits may be an easy sell, but they won't produce nearly as good results as a second hand vacuum pump, and a low temp resin prepreg. this is the way i have been recommened by easycomposites/carbon mods same company) for getting most strength and lightness for the panels Edited by wng691s clubby on 7th Feb, 2014.
