Dumb CF question

Advice
#1

In the very interesting video on Placid Boatworks site



http://placidboats.com/index1.html



Charlie Wilson mentions that carbon fiber is Rayon that has been baked.



My question is this: Is the Rayon thread baked and then woven into cloth or is the rayon cloth woven and then baked?



I figger that it is the former.

If the itch is unbearable, Delphinus, you should get “white carbon”. It is much betterer :slight_smile:
