Whether the EasyComposites has good products?
Thanks for your reply!
Save yourself on wasting money on a kit and purchase the materials individually. As a hobiest, buy a harbor freight pump. I started off with one and it lasted me several months before it took a dump on me. I was able to trade it in because I had the 1 year coverage on it. It broke down two more times about 4 months apart and they kept on replacing it.
Its nice to know you’ll always have a new pump :D. Even if it doesnt last long lmao. Just don’t use it to make money with :P.

What materials are used in the manufacture of composites (which company) and what kind of pump do you use?
Thanks!
Take a look at HP Textiles or R&G. Both ship to poland. Take a vac pump for airco services for the beginning, they are cheap and have a good vac level.
The EC company offers great products and support. At least so far I have bin very happy about my pump and starter kit, mould kits and different cloths. Their epoxy system
is also far superior to the benchmark westsystem
in mechanical properties. sure there are many good companies HP textiles included. Quality of my Ec pump is very good and so is the price. Why would you save on a tool if it only lasts a few months and you change it 4 times? what a headache! i am
generally against cheap tools.
cheers
