Carbon Fiber Repair Kit, 36" x 14"

For people who say that it does not work or that the resin is bad, it is because they are doing something wrong, do not get carried away by those criticisms if you do things well, it works wonders, just find out what you should do before buying it. that depends on the result you will get, I definitely recommend it. I leave some photos of the pieces that I am making, (they are not finished yet)

Make sure the components are mixed by volume per instructions. Mixing by weight does NOT work.

The CF and epoxy worked well for my repairs of various damaged CF sporting equipment (bike frame, kayak paddle shaft). The epoxy should be mixed 1:1 by volume. Without an easy way to measure small volumes, it is convenient to mix small batches of epoxy by weight using a small kitchen scale however I noticed that the resin is considerably denser than the hardener so the volume will be wrong if you mix 1:1 by weight. I estimated that the resin is about 20% more dense than the hardener so using a weight ratio of 1.2:1 Resin:Hardener works well to keep the volumes equal. Curing of the mixed epoxy is fairly slow at room temperature. If you are in a hurry, heat the wet assembly well above normal room temperature to speed up the curing reaction rate. Small heater, close lightbulb, or putting the part into a hot furnace mechanical room (100F) all can be used if you don't want to wait for days. I had no troubles with premature gelling of the epoxy as reported by others, satisfied with the product. Weave of the CF sheet is fairly loose so be aware of material fraying if weave appearance is a concern.

Absolute crap. The twill is extremely loose and keeps falling apart. Most aggravating is the epoxy. I mixed 2parts A and one part B, as directed, and got less than 5 minutes of working time before instantaneous gelling and hard cure at 8 minutes. This completely wasted hours of prep and entire project. I will have to find another supplier.

The kit arrived quickly and is very good, this is the first time I have ever used carbon fiber and it turned out nicely. The instructions that it came with weren’t very helpful besides Resin ratios but I recommend watching YouTube videos.

For a beginner set if you’re just getting your feet wet and have never worked with carbon fiber this is a great product. It’s easy to use, it’s straightforward, and the results speak for themselves.

I bought this kit I definitely recommend it to anybody who wants to do some diy carbon fiber parts very awesome But how I can buy a gallon of it ?

Worked as good as anyone can expect for a first timer. Be sure to check YouTube to gain a better understanding of how this method works to ensure a better turnout your first time. I made the mistake of mixing all the epoxy straight away so I was not able to apply as much as I wanted since it all started curing pretty quickly. I may add a second layer to reinforce because just one layer will turn out a flimsy piece. All in all, I’m pretty satisfied. Be careful with the carbon because it can fall apart on you if you handle it improperly. I used masking tape to hold the edges of my cuts Together until I started laying down the epoxy.
