CF bonnet spoiler - mould finish :) & damaged :(

Spent 4 hours tonight playing with kids clay. Not as fun as it sounds but it left me with this;

You may be wonder why I've done this, well, it's so when I put the tooling get on tomorrow I can run it down to the table surface and give it a flat edge all the way around.

You may still be wonder why I've done this. It's to give a good even surface to seal the vacuum bag against with some space on either side of the part for the vacuum connector and the resin infusion spiral :twisted:

So the bonnet spoiler will be the first resin infused part off the production line.

Those of you thinking are you going to finish any of these parts? :lol: I'm going to re-mould the mugen spoiler with tooling gel and the same flat over flow edges so this can be infused tool, not happy with the either of the glass moulds I've made.

There will be more pics to follow tomorrow :)
