So i bought a carbon fiber hood a few months back that was oxidizing and i recently decided to fix it. So i searched and there are a few options...wet sand and re clear or the cheap way of polish compound and wax... total cost was about 50 bucks and time was about 1.5 hours I could have got it cheaper online but i went to a local marina parts store in gulport. I know this topic has been posted many times but i just wanted to share my personal success with this diy...

Oh and i used those little *** applicator pads next time i will buy a buffer...

 

great!! thanks

 

Thanks

 

I still have the same hood and still looks good but i do wax once every two weeks...

 

nice!

does how long does it take to start fading again?

 

Just get it clear coated. it will save alot of having to buff and sanding everytime. imho
