    Rubbing down Carbon Fibre, no no?

    Just thinking about tarting the little splitters up at the front of the car, they are already looking a bit tired from the odd scratch and stone chip!

    I was thinking about rubbing them down to remove the surface blemishes and then re-lacquering them, I have some nice high build stuff at home from my Dad's garage that leaves a lovely deep shine! :smokin:

    What I don't want to do those is fook the splitters up by rubbing the surface down, so long as I only go down to the lacquer it should be ok shouldn't it?

                      I've got some Ventureshield stuff on my wing mirrors but it's not across the whole lot so I'm not overly happy with it :bigcry:

                      Good idea on doing the splitters though :thumbs:
