CHEERS
NATH

 

I have no experience of doing that Nath but I found a few thing's about the subject that might be of interest (not sure if they'll be any help though );
carbon fiber paint removal - Speedzilla Motorcycle Message Forums
Removing Paint from Carbon Fiber - Ducati.ms - The Ultimate Ducati Forum
Removing Paint from a profesional paint job on a carbon fiber spoiler? - DTMPower BMW Forum
removing paint from carbon fiber hood questions - NASIOC

Google is your friend on this one Nath

 

nice one cheers il have a scout thru

 

I've started doing something similar to a painted CF spoiler.
I'd seen some of the threads above and started with a mini hand sander using 400 grit papers. Next step will be 800 and then 1200 grit paper before spraying with lacquer to seal and reveal the CF weave.
The advice I found was that chemical paint removal could be tricky on CF and not totally successful.

 

Be interested in your results lads. project thread maybe?

got a bonnet id like make full CF again

 

what type of sander was it butty orbital/belt? dont fancy tryin to do it by hand lol

 

It was a little Bosch PSM 80 hand sander
