umm.....your hood proble has a clear coat on it,that polish looks like its made to directly apply to carbon fiber ? I could easily be wrong,so don't flame me or whatever...I'm planning to get a C-F hood,so I do want to pay attention to this thread.....what kinda hood you got?

EDIT:Why the hell does the bottle say "very cherry" on it....look at the pic? Just odd....anyway,if you look at the enlarged pic....its just carnuba wax

I don't think it's really worth it in my opinion... what would be the difference between this "carbon fiber" polich and any REGULAR clearcoat polish? You have a sheet of carbon fiber, which is covered with the resin to make it what it is, and then covered in a clearcoat. I see no necessity in buying that 10.00+shipping polish, when you can run down to Wal Mart and grab something by Meguiar's and save a couple bucks at that...

yeah try some automotive wax first

C/F doesn't need polish. It needs many miles per hour of bugs and wind and tree branches, and an occasional mountain side to stay clean.

most bigger manufacturers use clearcoat on CF hoods where as cheaper hoods don't come with clearcoat at all just resin, in which case some sort of special polish is needed. But from i've seen polish/wax doesn't do any harm to CF clearcoated or not.
