What weight polyester do you use or is it "about right/silk feeling, tight weave light"?

Also, have you had much of any problems lifting off cured glass other than just once in a while?

I like the method - mimics vacuum bagging with a release film - very clever!

The polyester cloth I use is about like your significant other's silk scarf.........Color doesn't matter, Ha Ha

It will not peel up as long as you leave enough excess to get a good grip on when peeling it up.

Yes almost the same as vacumm bagging, I did this because if you ever tried to vacumm bag a built up structure, It gets squashed between the ribs, NOT GOOD!
