Ive been trying to find someone to re clear my cf hood as well cuz its kinda embarrassing seeing air bubbles on it

Bump for a puerco

I need a reclear as well...damn these fading carbon hoods...

I've done my own reclearing of my Seibon CF trunk. I didn't want to spend the $100-200+ to get it done professionally, even though it meant looking good as new. That's only one option/opinion though.

If you've got a lot of time on your hands and/or an extra trunk, this makes a fun little DIY project. It's tedious as f**k but appreciated more if done right.


Briefly,
I used: 500, 800, 1000/1200 grits wet/dry sand paper, dish soap, a spray bottle, LOTS OF WATER [I took one of those plastic jugs with the spout at the bottom and just let the water flow freely instead of having to stop and use the hose all the time], rags or towels for drying, 2-3 cans of Rustoleum Acrylic Lacquer, and 2-3 cans of Painter's Touch Clear Gloss. I also invested in one of those triggers for the spray cans as it helps maintain control while spraying. You're also gonna have to let it cure for a bit cuz you'll get little bubbles or spots where the coats didn't adhere thoroughly. When that happened, I just lightly wetsanded those areas with 1200 grit, let it dry, then polished it with some Meguiar's polishing compound.

All in all, cost me a little over $40 in supplies, and maybe 24 hours in the course of like 4 days, only because I was busy with work. It may not be the BEST, but it beats having yellow, oxidized carbon fiber.

looks pretty good! thanks for posting. i think im going to try that if i cant find somebody to do it at a reasonable price

bump!

Works like a charm with a buffer!

thanks! im going to try it
