When you're polishing your car do you use the same polish on carbon fiber things like your spoiler, diffuser etc

VFR Tuning

You typically take care of carbon fiber no different than normal paint when washing, waxing or claying. For polishing to remove swirls we recommend hand polishing because the gel coat on carbon fiber parts tend to be very soft and can get damaged from a machine polish.

Naaah....too lazy. Just regular car washes. lol

Yep


Nice to have the depth of shine and keep them clear of swirls like the rest of the car

Yup! Even the interior ones if needed. Same way as the paint...sort of. I use the same stuff I would use on normal paint, not the hard MB paint.

Yes you can polish them the exact same way you take care of your paint. Infact I would recommend wax and sealing your cf parts as part of your regular paint care maintenance. VFR hit the nail on the head with polishing cheaper CF parts. The clear many Asian manufacturers use do not always repel UV light. Hence yellowing and cracking of the clear coat. The clear is cheaper and not designed for harsher weather conditions.

I have been doing normal hand washes or have washed it on my own with products I ordered online for about 28 months now with a few clay bar/interior professional jobs, but have done no special "polishing" on the Mode Carbon pieces.

My OEM rear spoiler actually had the clearcoat start to peel on it. Even under warranty they wouldn't replace it.
