and did I say anything about it not being CF or an overlay...I've only played with fiberglass twice...carbon and kevlar a shit-ton....if you are asking about pre-preg CF and not just fabric, then yes it has to be autoclaved...or baked and vacuum bagged with a homemade solution.

I also said nothing about overlays because that's for the ricers...make a mold and "overlay" that for a part that is cf only.

what are you specifically trying to make?
