Group: Forum Members Posts: 3, Visits: 31	Dear All, I would like to know how to clear coat a piece made by carbon fibre. Reading through the products descriptions, I didn't find any product that could be sprayed over a finished part in order to get a better finish (for instance, if you end up with a matte finnish, you could spray a clear coat and make it glossy). I read, that the people from Easy Composites, recommend laquer to do so, but I would like to know which kind of laquer would be the best: normal laquer for wood applications, polyurethane laquer... Thanks for your attention and help! Tags clear coat laquer

We always prefer 2 pack professionally sprayed paints as the results are always better as is the quality of the lacquers themselves.
