  1. Does anyone have any tips on removing rub marks on the clear coat of carbon
    cranks? Can I use something like turtle wax after I clean the cranks and
    expect an improvement? Thanks for any help or website links. Eric

    If you do intend to use an auto wax be sure to check the label to
    determine if it is a 'cleaner/wax' as apposed to strictly a polish wax
    only. (The former will have a very slight abrasive compound in it, and
    will further thin/remove the clear coat on your carbon cranks. (An
    extreme example of a cleaner wax would for instance be polishing
    compound).

    Lemon Pledge works for me.

  4. Thanks Cipher and Kenny, Lemond Pledge sounds crazy enough to try and turtle
    wax does contain abrasives so I won't be using that. Thanks. Eric
