Default protect carbon fiber decals

What to use to protect carbon fiber decals on '19 GS.
On hood, top & trunk plus stripes both sides
Is there a Polish that can be used on decals?

Not sure which decals you are referencing. Can you post up some pics?

Any one of the clear wrap products should do it.

^ Or perhaps the carbon-flash 'stinger' or 'stripe' decals.

my Xpel guy cut the badge pieces for me. Don’t waste your time, they don’t sit right. For $75, you can order brand new front and back badges for the car if you ever chip them.

Just have a good paint protection film (PPF) shop install the clear plastic film over the decals. I have Xpel ultimate on my car and it provides great protection. As far as the emblems, you can either remove them and reinstall or have the film cut to where it outlines the emblem. Works well either way.
