Firstly I am not a professional. I am a hobbyist that has been playing around with carbonfiber. For the last 1.5 years I have been trying to find a workflow for my 3d printed mold process that can promise great results. I have tried various things and this is so far my best approach with best consistent results.

This lenghty video tutorial shares my process from A-Z. No secrets, nothing special, just steps I take to get to the finish line to allow myself to have a mold that has a decent surface but is air tight and works perfect for vacuum infusion process.
