Topsheet foil preparing for layup

Post by gnali »

I got some materials from a friend who works in a ski factory, including topsheet foil. He told me that I need to spray thin layer of colorless varnish (laquer) onto the foil, because otherwise the it won't glue to the rest of the materials. Is that true?

We have no idea what materials you are talking about, thus no responses.


Might I suggest asking someone who works in a ski factory that uses these materials what you should do? Oh wait....
