We've been experimenting with the pre-preg materials for orthoses and
have a question about technique. The supplier suggests the use of a
PVA bag on the exterior surface of the material to provide a smooth
surface finish. This works to a degree but in our experience the PVA
partially bonds to the surface and removal becomes extremely
difficult if not impossible. It's just a time consuming mess. Is
anyone aware of a better material to use for this purpose?
