Carbon roof blemishes

Hello all,

Does anyone have advice on how to remove these blemishes? I’ve tried polishing but didn’t work very well. Any help is much appreciated!

looks like it...
& the acid has etched the resin.
This one needs a CF pro to repair it properly.

Yeah , *if* it was bird shit the acid burned through the clear coat and a pro-repair is required in the situation.

I just had mine repaired. It was worse than yours. I wish you were in my neck of the woods, we would've gotten you sorted out in no time. I almost gave up when searching for people to help me with this problem. Thank God, I found my guy. He did an amazing job for dirt cheap. My CF roof looks brand new now.

Either drive down to the Midwest or find a good body shop guy. Then I'll have my guy walk him through the process.

Polishing won't work -- there is clearcoat missing.

Find an exotic car repair shop (e.g. a Ferrari-certified collision center) and have them take a look. They may be able to "dot" it with clearcoat and wetsand it down, which would make it harder to see but not invisible.
