uhhh... how does that work? Glossy or matte finish it makes no difference be it poly, vinyl, or epoxy that is used to make the part (unless it has some form of built in UV protection (and even then I wouldn't trust it)), will yellow over time.

Clearcoat is your friend... even if it's just the spray can stuff.

Nice hood btw :)

jessedrifter 09-09-2009 08:11 PM

thats so nice : ) and
whats the best uv protectant for cf hoods?????

REV-illusions 09-09-2009 08:20 PM

white paint :p

but... seeing as how you most likely want to see the CF it all depends. So far I've just been messing around with interior parts so.. can't really help ya there at moment, but most clearcoats will be good for alil while... but.. chances are your best bet is to contact a supplier and ask specifically about UV blocking clearcoats.

haha, man i wish meguiars had some cf uv protectant stuff haha,
but thanks rev illusions

Yeah the one that smells like bananas haha :D

I have a orbital polisher and comparing the High tech yellow wax and the NXT 2.0


The High tech yellow wax hands down, Bring out more shine and a hell alot smoother.

But both good waxes..... :mdrmed:

How much does the 3m Clearbra cost and where could you get it done? At a tinting place i'd assume?
