Dye in the Resin?
So I went ahead and got a vacuum press from ACP composites over the weekend. While I have been sheeting foam wings, I have never used a bag at home to complete this process. While I was perusing the website, I noticed they offered dyes to be added to the resin. I have always been attracted to having a wing come out of the bag finished with color and all.
Could some of you experienced guys explain this process? I am assuming that the laminating of the skins to the core is one process, and then fibeglassing the sheeting with the dye would be another process. How do you go about this? Is this where the Mylar comes into play? Then the resin does not stick to the bag? Are the foam shucks needed during this fiberglassing process?
I have a ton of questions about this, so any insight would be greatly appreciated. I am hoping to be bagging a wing this weekend. It will essentially be a long Kaos wing in the 72" span area.
Thanks in advance for any info.
