I have a quick question about using biaxial 1708 on stringers. Since 1708 has a layer of CSM on one side, which side should be laid against the form material?

You lay it mat (08) side down, it blends with the styrene in the poly resin to form the bond on the substrate...

Yeah, CSM side to the wood for that nice cloth look on top when it's wet out.

Thanks to all. I thought that was the way to go but I couldn't find anything that said specifically.
