An at least partially clad laminate comprising:

• (a) a cladding material;
• (b) a matrix material;
• and
• (c) at least one fabric comprising at least one strand comprising a plurality of fibers,
• wherein the at least one fabric is selected from a 7628 style fabric, and
• wherein at least a portion of the at least partially clad laminate has a roughness factor less than 8 microns using a one ounce clad, measured in either the warp direction or the fill direction of the at least one fabric.
