Lay one (1) fiber glass cloth square directly above the paper
template which can be clearly seen through the
Suran
Wrap®. Place one (1) epoxy drop, about the
size of a quarter, directly in the middle of the fiber glass cloth square centered on the
white paper template. Use a second (2nd) piece of
Suran
Wrap® as a burnishing/spreading tool placed
on top of epoxy drop, to gently spread the resin into cloth. Care should be taken being
sure to not disturb the symmetry of the fiber glass cloth. Remember it is fiber glass cloth which provides the strength to the part you are making ...not the resin. Continue to spread the epoxy into the weave until you are satisfied an even...smooth surface has been obtained.
Place a second square of fiber glass cloth on top of the first, and an epoxy
drop, slightly smaller than first, into the center of the fiber glass square. Work the
resin into the second (2nd) layer of cloth, taking care not to disturb first layer, or
separate weave of either layer. When
satisfied you
have an even saturation of the cloth, place a paper
towel across this cloth / |
