PARALEX Technical Data
Cutting PARALEX Fiber:
- Before cutting PARALEX fiber, tape the edge of the fiber with masking tape then cut down the middle of the tape line.
- Use a scissor with a serrated edge.
- If you attempt to cut PARALEX fiber with a smooth bladed scissor, use very sharp scissors then fold the braid over on itself – (doubling up) greatly helps.
Lamination:
For the best edging results, the use of Perlon, Nylons or 1/2oz Dacron felt is ideal as the first layer and the last layer.
- For best results use 80:20 resin
Grinding:
For the best edging results, the use of Perlon, Nylons or 1/2oz Dacron felt is ideal as the first layer and the last layer.
- Use high speed and low pressure.
- Only use sharp abrasives, dull abrasives will create friction and will “burn off” the resin and leave exposed fibers at your edge.
Edging Techniques:
(The use of inner and outer finish layers is required. See example TT & TF Layup.)
Finishing edge instructions:
Finish as you would any composite by wet sanding using 220 grit and finish with 400 grit wet/dry sanding paper.
