Carbon fiber hood getting white spots. Can’t remove
So I’ve had my carbon fiber hood for about or almost a year now. And I recently just noticed these white spots on it. They “look” like water spots, but they are not. I can’t remove them. I tried washing the car and clay barring it. But can’t get it off.
Anyone know what this is? The cause of this? Or any remedies for this? Thanks a lot fellas! |

See if polish will take it out.

Gotta get the hood re-cleared.
From another member: Before - https://www.instagram.com/p/BeZDvowA...en-by=ss_tinho After - https://www.instagram.com/p/Bin1NtcH...en-by=ss_tinho See if you can contact him and find out who did the work for him. He's in SoCal as well. |

If polishing won't solve the issue, you might need to wetsand it first using 3000 grit sandpaper.

I agree with cnrad. It looks like the clear is flaki ng off......or the carbon fibre itself is breaking down.

Once you get it corrected, be sure to apply a 3M clearcoat/bra to protect it. Most people don't think about that.
