Minimize Print-Thru within your Lamination
This surfacing mat is a thin ply of continuous strand fibers that are randomly looped throughout the roll of material. It serves two primary purposes:
- As a surface coat, it is often added to molds to minimize the pattern show-through of heavier fabrics applied later. It permits surface sanding of finished parts without compromising, or cutting into, the reinforcing fabric below.
- When used with sandwich core, it may be placed directly over core materials to optimize bond-line thickness. It will also keep excess resin from draining into honeycomb cells when a vacuum is not used.
It is extremely thin, with a consistency much like tissue paper, and is held together with only a light binder—it does NOT add strength or structural value to any application.
