How would you recommend bringing back a carbon fiber hood that has clouded up?
I used a cheap orbital buffer and rubbing compound and it came out pretty good, but you can still kind of see some areas that need a little more work.
You’ll need to use a heavier compound or more abrasive pad, or both. Just be careful you’re not removing too much clear coat. Usually those aftermarket hoods have a very thick layer of clear coat so you should be okay, but food for thought.
If you see pad haze afterwards, just go back with a finishing pad and finishing compound and it should clear up great.
