Sorry Matt,
One more question. I went to apc web page and I found 3.0 oz/sq yd satin weave witch is .0035 thick, and 2.3 oz/sq yd plain weave witch is .0029 thick and their ez-lam resin. What would you recommend?
Thanks again,
Paul
Paul,
Look for the 0.6 oz per sq yd. That's the stuff you want. The thickness I quoted is with finish fully applied and RTF
EZ Lam works fine but you need to know some technique. you will need to squeegee as much off as you can with an old credit card. I prefer using epoxy paint such as Klass Kote to apply glass. Nitrate dope works well also and is lighter but not fuel proof.
If you read the thread earlier on you would see that the carbon cloth is applied with nitrate and after initial bedding of the carbon, I use the epoxy paint slurry (microballons and baby powder) which fills and fuel proofs. This technique works superbly with glass
BTW I use 3 os cloth for things like wheel pants, chin cowls, canopies,etc.
