I waxed mine everytime I washed my car over the last summer, which was about once a week and tried 2 or 3 different waxes, and it still cloud up in some spots. I am about to start sanding on it and have it cleared. I got sick of people that didn't that carbon fiber clouds up asking "Whats on your hood, it looks dirty?"

So hopefully it works.

My $.02 can be found in the link above. Kid i bought the hood off was pissed when he saw what i made of his short commings. Best $450 i spent with some manual labor for carbon fiber hood and fenders

Ouch, i went right to an autobody supply store and said such and such reccomended me to you to pick up a bottle of 3m finesse it. $32 for a quart including tax. I have PLENTY left over. It also works wonders on the stock unpainted mirrors as to make them shiney as all hell.
