Some polish with an orbital,
just do it very carefully and it should be good

Then protect it with a clear film that AeroTect sells to protect just that

I covered my scratched-up wood trim with the Carbon Fiber overlay kit - that seemed to do the trick!

How easily were you able to install the AeroTect film?
