polishing Carbon fiber

Im polishing that as reg paint, but i have not used any heavy cutting on it, only XMT 360 Menz 106 with soft pads, other than that i dont know..
 
106 with grey pad..on the m6...worked fine, i woudla used the white but was too scared haha
 
Paint is paint ... most CF is clear coated so go at it like you normally would ... the least aggressive method as possible. If it's gel coated (aftermarket) then you can still use normal practices. This was talked about a few days ago...
 
why polish it ?? Swirls ?? If not, wouldnt a product like Plexus or Plex-all work as well and give UV protection.

My understanding is that CF body panels are either clear coated or gel coated. If the clear/gel coat gets swirled then the panel looks hazy.
