Peel ply has been well-known for aircraft construction for many years.

The screen fabric produced using washed polyamide 6.6 (nylon) is applied as a final layer to the epoxy or polyester resin laminate. Following the increase in hardness or respectively before bonding the parts, the peel ply is peeled off („torn off”). This results in an overall rough, bondable upper surface free from the lubricating film. Suitable for epoxy, vinyl ester and polyester resins.
