How to layup(?) carbon fiber in a silicone small mold

How to layup(?) carbon fiber in a silicone small mold

How to layup(?) carbon fiber in a silicone small mold

(OP)
Hi guys first off let me say I'm new to molding/carbon fiber but I have researched this topic for quite awhile, but I still have some questions. I know how to make the mold of the part (which is already made so I don't need to fabricate it from scratch), but the piece is fairly small. It is a trigger that is about 4 mm wide and 2 inches long. So my main question is would that be too small to lay carbon fiber without it bunching up in such a small space, and I have some other newbie questions if you guys are willing to answer.

Thanks in advance for the help,
Paul
