I agree thinner is better. Are you using a female mold Perry?

Perry,
The local wood-prop builder uses a special (recessed into the timber)
leading edge which can take a hell of a beating, without damage.
I believe this would also be beneficial to a carbon prop and the recess
could be allowed for the mould process.
