i have clearcoated to bring back the shine. the paint is heavier than the original carbon fiber alone. Meguiar's detail spray does a good job. tim |

Smoke What type of clear coat did you use? Mine has the dull green appearance I have used several cleaners but no real improvement. Thanks |

It's not that it's dirty. The problem is UV exposure to the resin used on the CF. About the only way to get looking better is to polish off discolored resin. |
