CF protection help
Quick question, how can we protect glossy exterior carbon fiber from sunlight which can cause fading?

I would put that combo against the strongest most expensive "glass coating" product out there. Enjoy the beading. |

If there is UV protectant in the clear coat you will be fine. I don't recall the last time I saw faded or yellowed CF.

My previous licence plate cover faded over time as did my CF hood scoop on my old WRX many moons ago. I just purchased a $500 M Performance spoiler. I'll be so pissed if it starts to fade. How can you be sure if there's UV protectant in the clear coat?
