Default Carbon Fiber hood chip.

I just picked up a CF hood yesterday VIS one looks very good except... when i was moving it into my house one of the edges scrap the concrete a lil and now the the clear coat on the lil edge came off. I was wondering if i just leave it as is move will fall off? Should I add some super glue to it to keep it from getting worse? I msut say the VIS CF hood is really well made the clear coat is very very thick. almost like 1/4 inch

i would do something to seal it up... superglue as you mentioned would leave a filmy residue... so paint, or even more clear coat... just tape off the corner, and you should be ok... hopefully it is not a visible corner, and just the one by the windshield.

It is not a clear coat more like a resine/clear poxy. you can use the same stuff to repair a surf board on it.
