Hand lay up process:

Surface is cleaned and prepared
Resin is applied to the surface with loaded roller
Emulsion bound chop strand mat is then laid onto the wet resin
Resin is then applied evenly to the chop strand mat and left to soak
The material is then meticulously rolled to remove any air pockets, break down the fibre binding and left to cure.
Resin coats and product resistant top coat is applied to seal and complete the laminate.
