A method of manufacturing a composite sheet includes perforating a
reinforcement panel. A mold surface onto which the composite sheet may be
formed is provided. At least one outer coat of material is applied onto
the mold surface. At least one coat of resin and reinforcement material
is applied over the outer coat to form a reinforcement layer. The
perforated reinforcement panel is applied to the reinforcement layer, and
the resin is forced into the perforations formed in the reinforcement
panel, thereby bonding the reinforcement layer to the reinforcement
panel.
