Considering Carbon Fibre Mirrors - How do you clean them?

Considering Carbon Fibre Mirrors - How do you clean them?

Can you wax them?

Do they scratch much more easily?

I clean them just as if they were the factory mirror covers. I also use my Zaino on them to protect them. No scratch issues.

Like John said, no different to standard covers - the gloss is strong. I love mine!

Clear coat is just like as on paint.. I used to wax my carbon fiber hood all the time. Generally less likely to see rock/bug chips also.
