Description

ACP’s Carbon Fiber Plain Weave Veneers are an outstanding decorative laminate with a deep, glossy, three-dimensional finish. Manufactured with a clear, resin-rich carbon-fiber prepreg these veneers deliver a smooth, low porosity laminate with a mirror-like finish without the need for a clear coat to enhance the appearance.

As the thinnest of our carbon fiber sheets, these veneers are easy to trim and cut. The single layer of 3K plain weave carbon fiber prepreg allow the sheets to be semi-flexible yet remain stiff like cardstock. They can bend in only one direction at a time making it suitable for either flat surfaces or pipes. Once cured, these sheets cannot be re-shaped. Therefore they will not lie flat on compound curves, convex or concave surfaces.

Our proprietary Autoclave curing process produces the most consistent and highest quality gloss carbon fiber veneers possible. Manufactured using 100% real carbon fiber fabric pre-impregnated with high quality epoxy resin, these sheets are cured at high temperatures and pressure to ensure a strong, rigid product that cannot be re-shaped after cured. Unlike other manufacturing methods, our Autoclave curing process consistently yields flat, lightweight sheets with minimal voids, waves or buildups.

These 1st quality sheets are manufactured with a clear, resin-rich carbon fiber prepreg which results in a smooth, low porosity laminate with a mirror-like finish. Our special blend of high strength epoxy resin guarantees a durable, stronger, longer lasting finish. The built in UV inhibitor in the 2×2 twill prepreg resists UV rays in outdoor applications. There is no need for fillers, gel coats or surface treatments to enhance the surface appearance of our sheets.
