Carbon mat/cloth

Post by tscastello »

I have been really interested lately in molding my own carbon fiber parts. I couldn't begin to tell you how many video's i have been watching and how many articles I have been reading on the stuff and so far it doesn't seem difficult at all.
It reminds me very closely to fiberglass repair and molding like I used to do with speaker boxes and a few of some old friends dashes. As long as I was doing that I never thought about using carbon fiber on any of it until now.

Any of you have any experiance with it? I was going to probably order some just to give it a shot on a few parts to see how it goes.

I found this site and it seems like they have quite a few options.

I see a ton of builds on fiberglassforums.com and it doesnt seem that bad if you have ever delt with fiberglass boxes. Ive thought about getting into it myself.
