Cleaning / polishing carbon fibre?
«

November 12, 2010, 03:13:22 PM »
Hi, my carbon fibre is in good condition. It doesn't need to to be clear coated again. Just when I'm giving the bike a detail I want to make it shine. Ive been told to use silicon spay but after time it just leaves a white film.
Any advice?
Cheers

If your CF parts have been sprayed with an automotive clearcoat, you can apply car wax/sealant.

DON'T
use silicone spray.
It will make any paint work down the road almost impossible

Last time I saw Eric he told me to spray everything I could with silicone, especially if you were going to paint it.

What he didn't tell you is I charge per fish eye.
