Before you vacuum bag, seal the holes for an airtight setup.

Thin fiberglass + 105/206 + 406 = strong backing plates.
✔️ Wet out the surface
✔️ Add thickened epoxy with 406
✔️ Coat both sides for a tight seal

This keeps air where it belongs—inside the bag, not your laminate.

🎯 Accurate epoxy starts with one thing: a full, smooth pump stroke.

To avoid off-ratio mixes with WEST SYSTEM® Mini Pumps:
❌ Don’t use epoxy from an interrupted stream
❌ Don’t pull up on pump heads
❌ Don’t rapid-fire pump

👉 Strong mix = strong cure.
