Default Re: removing paint from cf hood???

You will most likely have to sand down the paint until the weaves of the carbon can be seen again. Once all of the color is gone and it looks like a carbon fiber hood again, you are going to have to get the hood re-cleared. Use a 400 grit sand paper to do the job. Its gonna be time consuming and a pita, but with some time and prep work, it can be done. Good luck!
