PET foam core

I was reading on NidaCore that PET color can transfer to the finished side of the laminate? They say “white” transfers less.

Has anyone used PET core and had color transfer onto the black carbon fiber?

More of a chance with ester based resins as they can cause some of the pigment to bleed out. Shouldn’t be an issue with epoxies.

Thanks TET. I was afraid to buy this type of core if that was going to be an issue.
