Default UV protection coat on carbon fiber hoods?

Where can i buy this product cause i want to suprise my brother by fixing his carbon hood. the UV protection coat has worn off and it looks dull, it doesnt have that shine or smooth glass feel anymore and i want to buy a UV protection product for him and put it on when hes asleep or something. He takes care of his car and stuff always happens to it (scratches, weird rubber-like goo on fender). anyway i wanna know if i can find this stuff at walmart or something and what is the name for it.

Not Armorall you dorknut! Thats for vinyl and plastic.

Try Meguires Cleaner Wax...it does wonders to old and faded paint. I use it on just about everything that needs a shine. Should work fine on the carbon fiber hood.

should stay shiney for 6mo to a year. but it kinda depends on how bad it is in the first place, and how much polishing ya do. if its really bad do a second application, then another in say 6months.
