Make A How-To on the FULL Carbon Wing!

Someone make a write up on how to sand the sides of the wing and have the "naked" wing! Nothing but CF!. Theres a thread on this but no specific directions. I'm sure most of us would want this!

If you sand it, you'll loose the clearcoat on it. Just wax it with connelly wax (sp?). That'll take the paint out.

You could always sand it, but there is a big chance you'll sand the CF through on some parts to the plastic inside.

You could use goo gone or if bold use some brake fluids to get the paint off.

of course mask everything.

lol.

I've seen the full CF wings and frankly, I like it with the paint.
