layed up console with glass
Started out with some clay for radius corners. then waxed it and sprayed some pva type water base film on it. Looks like Part All Release film.. I bought this stuff years ago so not sure if it will work well. But regardless the mold is waxed and it has melamine So it should come apart...Any who Once the film dryed, I rolled out white gel coat.NO wax let it tack off and then started to lay 1.5 oz mat. overlapping corners. and then two layers of 1808 0/90.. I found this stuff wets out a lot easier.. I used about 3 gallons of resin. the cornes and radius. has additional glass or tabbing.. I used a lot of scrap pieces from my transom build.
I will be putting a 3/4 in foam core that has resin channels cut into the foam and 1" o.c. perferatioins already. I would like to bag it but I decided to just lay a section down and glass over it. then fit another piece and glass over it. That way I think would be a lot stronger verses. putting all the foam in at once and glassing the entire core at one time
