How to Make Carbon Fibre Badge / Emblem. Including Mould. HONDA

Carbon Fibre HONDA Badge / Emblem Replicated. Start to Finish Including Mould. EPOXY
In this video i replicate a Honda front car badge into a direct replacement carbon fibre badge using prepreg carbon fibre and out of autoclave curing.
I'm not 100% happy with the final result, there are a few imperfections when sticking down the vinyl logo (Took 3 attempts!) just didn't want to sit nice on the curves.

Your dremel skills are impressive - very stable and accurate hand cut there.

How can I get a link to all of the products used . I want to do this exact thing with the exact emblem

[@j1mmithp]

Hello! Where did you get the blue knife from? Is it a rubber knife? Many thanks!

[@giannismavros5140]

great job and skills!! You inspired me to make one for my alfa romeo!! one question: how did you make the sticker?

[@CarbonWorkshops]

Thank you! I used a vinyl plotter to cut it. Not expensive to buy for a small one.

[@cakesigro]

Hi sir! Can you sand prepreg carbon cloth ? For example if I wanna paint the 3D lettering on emblem badge and sand areas where paint is not needed? Hope this makes sense. Then obviously clean / clear once sanded. Hope you reply or someone that knows does. Thank you

[@navhuss958]

Excellent skills I enjoyed watching the process

[@luis7899]

Hi! which vinyl plotter do you use? TIA

[@SpiritTracks95]

Please make tutorial for the stickers!! Really struggling to create my own ones

[@japoncae7211]

did yoiu use epoxy in the oven ? I could not get it

[@seanharvey9622]

Which machine is that you're using to seal the vacuum bag?

[@CarbonWorkshops]

It's just a standard heat sealing machine.

Should have the Honda decal in red !

[@andreabotti99]

For the mold you're using epoxy gelcoat and then a coupling coat? I thought easy composites coupling coat was meant to be used with the ug1 black vinylester gelcoat, not epoxy gelcoat. Are you sure this is supposed to be done? Thanks

[@CarbonWorkshops]

'Technically' it doesn't work. But if gel coat is left the cure overnight it works fine for me. The black uni mould gel coat doesn't work well with prepreg.

[@andreabotti99]

@@CarbonWorkshops I see. I only do resin infusions but if possible I wanted to use epoxy gelcoats anyway to avoid the smell of polyester/vinylester stuff. Thanks for answering my questions

[@markkraus3598]

Very nice ! Where do you get the mold release? Thanks

Amazing!!! VTEC POWER!!!!!

Great job

hi,where do you buy those yellow stuff like playdoh? been searching but couldn’t find.is it from pelikan?

[@CarbonWorkshops]

Search yellow Filleting wax. Easy composites sell it

Where did u get the emblem sticker ?

[@christophergoguen7567]

How much would you want for 2 of them

[@Composites.Cymru34]

That’s new to me.. backing the high temp epoxy with the unimould backing materials I guess it’s the black gel coat that made it not so compatible with the xpreg?

[@CarbonWorkshops]

Yeah technically they don't go together. But works good for me so far. The black gel coat for prepreg moulds always left me with pinholes in the parts produced

[@bitsurfer0101]

Did you make the decal to go overtop the carbon piece yourself?

[@CarbonWorkshops]

Yes 👍

[@bitsurfer0101]

@@CarbonWorkshops How did you copy the original?

[@CarbonWorkshops]

@@bitsurfer0101 very easy using a vinyl cutting program. Copied the image from Google in to the program.

[@duncan5284]

Wait - where did the "H" sticker come from?

[@CarbonWorkshops]

I cut it on my vinyl cutter

[@3toedSloth75]

With the hollow back, how does it stick to the car?

[@CarbonWorkshops]

It would need bonding into position

[@angelortiz6363]

Do you do custom orders for people?

Sometimes if I'm not to busy [e-mail] 👍

Where are you selling this?

I'm not really. Just made it for bit of fun

@@CarbonWorkshops you should sell on ebay & etsy. Most people want it but doesn't have skill or equipment you do.
