[QUOTE="LostInSpace278, post: 233829, member: 12517"] The reason companies use a vacuum system on laminates of any sort is 1) I reduces the amount of air bubbles in the resin. 2) When a liquid is under vacuum it will boil off quicker and at a lower temperature, thus set up faster. Water boils at 210° F in the open air. Under vacuum of lets say 28 inches of mercury water will boil at 99.93° F. [/QUOTE]
