The way we do it is buy making the female mold. covering it with a non-stick plastic and waxing it. This gives that side a very shinny look after the epoxy has cured. the only problem with using the female mold is that you will need to use a vacuum bag to make sure the CF holds to the mold. The side against the mold comes our really crisp and the back side is matted do to the use of breather clothe and peely plie (sp?) to absorb the excess epoxy.
