What is the material layer used within the vacuum bag pressure system to absorb excess resin during curing called?

Squeegee
Bleeder
Absorber
Catcher

The correct answer is: Bleeder

The material layer used within the vacuum bag pressure system to absorb excess resin during curing is called a bleeder. A squeegee is a tool used to help evenly distribute resin on the surface of the material, not to absorb excess resin. An absorber refers to a material that absorbs moisture, not resin. A catcher is not a term used in relation to vacuum bag pressure systems.
