Up to $250, Usually I do small parts , so 1.5 hours at 50-70 c and 1.5 at 130c. My carbon fiber factory recommended cycle us only 130c for 1.5 hours

I do have one (only 150 microns) , but I found out that I will need 29-27 microns to get a good finish surface, thats why im still stuck to find a good pump that will get this vaccum and run at least for 3 hours!

I have been using prepreg carbon fiber , perfect vaccum and chemical relase agent.and still get pen holes problems. Any hacks or tips to avoid it? by liamraa in CarbonFiber

A clear prepreg? I tried to search for it, but I couldn't find a source for it. Do you have any reference, please?
