    Re: Anyone buy carbon fiber sheet (scotty34)

    I actually hope to add some carbon fiber throughout my boat as well. The only thing that worries me is the UV resistance of the carbon's topcoat - I've seen nasty photos of car hoods...

    Hopefully when I start my project I'll order from compositeenvisions.com since they directly label their product as UV protected. And the cost for carbon sheets isn't too bad, providing you don't need much lol.

    Scotty, feel free to call me. I have carbon fiber ABS sheet. Its got UV and made for the marine industry. Works great for dash, bow, etc. panels. Comes in 24"x24" sheets, 3/16" thick. MM

    If you buy carbon fiber sheets that are not rated for UV protection then you will need to coat it with a clear polyurethane.
