I use Meguires all the time. Good stuff
OK, stupid question of the day. I haven't seen the carbon fiber hood up close, but do you just wax it like the painted surface? Thanks for any feedback.
I did some research (i.e, Googled) and the most common response I could find is to have your carbon fiber hood clearcoated. Many come clearcoated alreaqdy and if the challenger would have actuallyt had a carbon fiber good it would most likely be cleared is as well. Without that it might get chipped from pebbles, rocks, etc, and then wash and wax it. These two provide a layer of protection to the carbon fiber just like Primer->Paint->Clear->Wax all cover the bodypanel underneath.

Not sure how accurate this is though. If anyone can verify or dispute this please do.
