from a far it looks ok.. but when you get up close.. You'll see this:

thats like a 7inch scratch.. someone key'd my hood and it totally sucks balls.. Its a deep one too but don't think its on the CF, hopefully
how do I fix this without damaging the Carbonfiber?
do you think its a good idea to just sand it down and then try to reclear it?
thanks it advance!

um if you do it right, it absolutly will. but for that its probably not deep enough to bother, just a sand and clear will do fine.


(comment on post below) True, does take practice. I think everyone should learn to work with resins for fiberglass and cf its a good skill for more then just auto work.
