How do I properly maintain the carbon fiber body of my BMW M8?

I absolutely love the look of the carbon fiber body on my BMW M8, but I'm not sure how to properly take care of it. What should I avoid doing and what products should I use to keep it looking pristine?

First, congratulations on owning such a beautiful car! Carbon fiber bodies require special care to maintain its sleek finish. To avoid damaging it, make sure to never use abrasive cleaners or tools when cleaning the body. Instead, opt for a microfiber cloth and a pH-neutral soap. Also, avoid parking your car in direct sunlight for extended periods of time as it can cause the carbon fiber to fade.

I've found that using a ceramic coating specifically designed for carbon fiber is the best way to protect and maintain its shine. After properly washing and drying your car, apply the coating with a foam applicator and let it cure for the recommended time. This will add a layer of protection and make it easier to clean in the future.

Another tip is to regularly check for any scratches or chips on the carbon fiber and address them immediately. Small scratches can be buffed out using a scratch remover designed for carbon fiber. For larger damages, seek professional help to prevent further damage.
