Had some time today so I decided to sand down my wing.



about an hour into it.


1.5 hours.




What it should look like once it has clear on it again.

 

Looks great! I did this a few weeks ago. So glad I did!

 

Motivation, hopefully the weather is nice this weekend

 

Looks new. What exactly did you use?

 

wow a huge difference...well done

 

A sanding block, 80 and 180 grit sandpaper. It looks really shinny in the last pics simply because it is wet. still needs to be cleared.

 

So if you go too far you wont damage the carbon fiber?

 

It's not hard to see when the clear coat is gone. Dont think you can do much damage to the CF.

 

Very nice!

 

I've been down to 100 grit and I still have a lot of clear on the wing, guess I'll go down to 80 next. Did you use elbow grease or an electric sander?

 

so do you just get a body shop to spray some clear on it??

 

Good job.

 

looking good.

 

I had to use 80 when I did mine. It was kind of scary using such a low grit, but it ate through the clearcoat amazingly. Just be sure to go over it with a much higher grit before you clear, or you'll see some sand scrathes in the clearcoat.

 

Nice. Looks good. I'm gonna be doin mine tomorrow. I was concerned about how the CF would look but I feel a lot better now
