yes mark does very good work!

 

anybody know where i can get my cf hood recleared and how much it would be :/

 

Mark can do that too.

 

Glad i found this thread. My tC will eventually need some body work and im moving to Pembroke soon!

 

It's best to clear them when they are brand new. If they have started to craze or crack, reclearing will NOT make the problem go away. I generally charge between $200.-- and $250.00 to clear a carbon fibre panel. It all depends on how much clear it takes. And the quality of the part. Some pieces come in new and still have pinholes and pits from the manufacturing proccess. I use PPG products and Matrix urethane clear. Takes about 2 days if my workload is lite.

 

mark is great done a lot of my work.

 

i mean i dont see any cracks just fading so i wasnt sure if its better to buy a new one or fix mine

 

That's kewl then. It will come out like new and not go bad again. Once they craze, there is nothing people can do. I try n tell everyone that buys carbon fibre parts to reclear them when new so they don't get stuck later. The urethane clears now have UV protection in them and help prevent deterioration. There's an old saying. "Pay me now or pay me later". And the pay me later part is usually a LOT more.

 

So how much you think it would cost and how Many days

 

LOL Please see previous post to answer this.
