Re: Fifty shades of Jade
Stripped sand blasted and painted the complete frame
Upol 2k eitch primer 3x coats
PN-S2025
Base metalic Audi grey 3x coats
Upol clear coat 4x coats
PN-S2081
Yes the weight is more but I'm sick of the frame going rusty
Painted in a dusty workshop with a cheap compressor and gun came out great !
Just got to find more power to compensate now

Looks good to me.

Re: Fifty shades of Jade
Using a cheap £250 tiny 3D printer we split the ducting up in parts that would fit in the printer and using cheap PLA plastic printed plugs

Re: Fifty shades of Jade
While these cost around £20 in material there are very flimsy and worried the molding process could deform them.
Ideally I should reprint but after 2 weeks of printing I’m committed now lol
Remember these are just the plugs.
Moulds Will be taken from these and then from the moulds real duct made

Re: Fifty shades of Jade
I decided to try and reinforce these with fibreglass and then filler and sand back. While they only have to last once We want them strong.

Re: Fifty shades of Jade
Then wrap in a release film
This has tiny holes in it that allow the resin to be pulled out

Re: Fifty shades of Jade
Then wrap in a breather cloth which allows the vacuum to surround the part.

Re: Fifty shades of Jade
Then poor man’s vacuum chamber !!!
4x for £10 and I have used the same bag over and over
Make no mistake these bags pull so much vacuum with a standard house hold vacuum cleaner they would crush a pint glass and are on par with commercial setups.
My first test part basically imploded it was so strong. Be careful!!!

Re: Fifty shades of Jade
The vacuum then sucks all the excess resin out the part in to the cloth and pulls any air out the resin leaving a better surface finish/better layup
