I would highly recommend EC's new thick release film. You lay it on top, vacuum pull and the layer peels off leaving you with a perfectly flat (no ripples) and shiny surface after one coat of epoxy, it cuts out a LOT of sanding as it's a very similar process to how you create carbon fiber sheets using glass.

Really nice video, going to try this myself soon on my bonnet, not so much going for crazy lightness but a bit lighter than the steel original bonnet, I suppose this method would work fine if I wanted to go fibreglass + carbon, but I would use glass on the first few layers and then carbon on the last " final layer / show layer " Not decided yet if I want to go full carbon or partial good bit of price difference. Great work

I wanna do something similar to my 2022 Elantra, the hood weighs SOOOO much for such a small car. heavier than many of the V8 engine hoods that I've lifted. wouldnt mind doing trunk and then possibly each of the panels and doors. if I could save 80% of each part I am sure I would drop a couple hundred lbs (the parts feel way heavier than necessary even for being metal).

If you are not using vacuum pump the final strength would not be too different, my question is, why dont you use fiberglass which is much cheaper than Carbon?

@user-le1cm3qz4u 2 ай бұрын
@@RuskiWeldFab The dimples on a golf ball enhance the Magnus effect, which is the lift generated by a spinning ball. The backspin created when the ball is struck causes a difference in air pressure on opposite sides of the ball. The dimples help optimize this pressure difference, allowing the ball to stay in the air longer and travel further. So unless you’re planning on flying your car around the track, propelled by hitting it with a golf club, you’d probably be better off trying to follow the principles of pretty much all other winning motorsport. Make your car smooth.

Could a “paddle roller” be used to help the resin penetrate and remove bubbles within the resin? Or is that not really an issue/could it damage the weave? I’ve seen people use them on fibreglass but not carbon. Great video as usual. Always an interesting/educational watch

Thank you very much for your contribution, there are no videos like this on the net. I want to do this in my car. Does the recipe raise temperature? Can this ruin the paint on my car? I have the bonnet with vinyl wrap which I would think would give it extra protection, but it is what scares me the most, damaging the original paint.

It’s a special high density foam. But I suppose any high density foam will work almost the same. In fact anything that can raise layers in between will work.

@@RuskiWeldFab Thanks! You’ve inspired me to start thinking about making my own first aero package on my car, and actually I’d like to build one before going first time to the track next season 😄. Already have a bunch of ideas and rules of a thumb to apply to really make it work. Seems to be much easier to work with composites than building a powerful engine and upgrading drivetrain, dealing with heat issues etc. Sorting out suspension, geometry and aero seems to me more accessible.
