Default Reclearing a painted CF hood?

Ok i'd post this in the body/paint section but the traffic in there is so low. And i just need a quick answer.

But im about to pick up a carbon fiber hood that was painted on top. So is it possible to just sand off the paint and just reclear the hood? Or is it just a waste of time?

I wasn't going to attempt it with my utterly horrid skills at painting anything. Everytime i pick up a can of paint my hand shakes worst then Micheal j. fox. But thanks for the quick reply, picking it up for cheap so thats why i was wondering.
