Polish a carbon frame ?
« on: October 17, 2012, 02:37:22 pm »
Has anyone tried to polish/restore the thermoplastic on the carbon frames? The spec sheet says that when built they were polished to a shine but not how? Mine has some scratches and I'd like to gef it looking nice before I build it up. Any ideas any one?

I found it in an old post by Shovelon so it must be tried and tested?!  I havent bought any yet but I'll have a look on the weekend.
