Top sheet bonding problems

Hello! We are now finished with making two pairs of skis, and the result was surprisingly good. Everything was almost perfect, the fir core, the 1035 g/m2 fiberglass (a bit heavy, but has many good qualities), and the graphic layer made of black flanel turned out much better then expected. I tried t...

UV-resistant paiting

Ok, finished an exam today and had a few beers now, but STILL can't stop thinking about pressing my first skis this cristmas...

I know that it is possible to buy clear UV-resistant paint. What if you spray that on whatever you want to use as a grafic layer, would that work?

Tusen takk, kjempeflott. Me trudde glassfiber ville vere enkelt å få tak i, men me har slite ein del med at dei butikkansatte me har snakka med ikkje har hatt tilstrekkelig kunnskap om produkta dei selger, og leverandørar har vore vanskelige å finne.
