You might be ok on that. Depends on how much glue you used. I always tape cause I always use more glue than needed. Maybe If I had Kirk's production level I'd ave enough hands on to get away with it. Know I'm never going to get to that point.
Hope this works out for you. If not, it's onward to the solution phase. 😀
No production level here at all...I'm a one man show..... If you just take a moment to wipe the glass clean with Lacquer thinner before wrapping it in plastic it comes out fine. i have learned not to use heavy plastic though... the heavier plastic can leave slight wrinkle lines in the glass if it isn't perfectly flat. the perfect stuff is 3 mill painters plastic, and don't wrap the damn thing up like a burrito... just make one fold over the top, put it in your form, then take the extra plastic and wrap it back over your pressure strip. You rarely get a drop of epoxy on your forms like that using the 3 mill stuff..
Now if you are using the 1 mill stuff like sandwich wrap, that stuff will rupture easier and make a mess. But its still much better than using masking tape and cooking it on your limbs.
Here is an old lay up video showing my lay up procedure. I was using electric heat strips in those days...
