12mm Forged Carbon Fibre Skinning explained

Carbon fibre skinning in 12mm tow is the process of overlaying existing components with a thick

layer of real of carbon fibre 12mm tow in order to give them a up to date unique carbon fibre

look. When done correctly apart from the weight it should be impossible to tell the difference

with one made from 100% carbon fibre .

The process can be used on mostly any components and materials you wish to use it on ie car

trim consoles, binnacles, dash parts, exterior parts wing mirrors, skirts, diffusers, bonnets/hoods

you can also use it on furniture, architectural features, household objects and exhibition displays

Skinning is mostly done for cosmetic purposes, However carbon fibre skin will also add a tough,

durable finish to the original component. It will also increase the strength and stiffness of the

original part.

Please Note: Some plastics (including polypropylene, polyethylene, HDPE and others) can be

very difficult to bond to. Parts made using these or similar plastics are unsuitable for skinning

unless prepared with a suitable plastic primer
