    What a life saver. After following your instructions I was able to remove the scratch from my brand new carbon fiber spoiler. I went the extra mile and used 3000 grit after the 800 and 2000. Came back and wanted to thank you for the video!

    Shop wanted to charge almost 400 to fix a few scratches on the back of my car and a scratch on the carbon fiber on top of my mirrors so I've been watching videos trying to learn how to do it myself. This video helped alot. It kept everything simple :) thank you!

    I bought a carbon fiber hood and it has a very small crack in it, just 3/4 of an inch long that has bubbled the clear coat. Body shops have told me that what you just did was impossible. I can't find anyone to repair it. I am using a tiny piece of carbon fiber tape to hide it until I can find someone that knows how to repair it, cover it, or something.

    Is there a way to avoid having the shadow in the carbon fiber? You can see it on the first part you cleared. Maybe re-epoxy it?

    I used 800, then 2000, and some Meguiar's G19220 Ultimate Polish on a CF trunk lid but it still has that cloudy sanded look that’s noticeable. The scratches are out at least. Maybe I should try a different polish?

    That wheel that you use as a stand to spray clear gives me goosebumps. The shit looks like gonorrhea.

      Would this be possible with matte carbon fibre? If so how would you get the look restored without the polish?
