All modern paint jobs should be clear coated instead of just buffing the paint to a high gloss finish.
Wendy posted this lc17 on facebook with clear coat over just the raw carbon frame.

That's actually a very good tip. Next time I probably won't order a very thick protective coat

Well I must say it looks great the colour. Are you fitting 32 tires? Do you think it's possible to fit 35?
About the Clear coating, maybe @Jim can confirm but I'd assume it should have it. Maybe they need to improve it too
Yeah the colour looks great but if it chips, not sure it's worth to pay.
Which colour is it?
Clear coating over the color usually helps with durability which I wrongly assumed was included with the cost of painting
Beauty! Love the color! How’s the paint finish close up? Also, thanks for the feedback on the bottles. Ordered a couple to ship with my frame (still a month before shipping … the parts are so lonely! ).
Please consider using different logos, it's pretty cringe (and illegal in lots of jurisdictions) to ride fakes. My bike looks like a Factor and i made Tractor decals, it's my way of trolling Factor. But putting Factor logos would just be cringe.
Light carbon makes good frames, there's no shame in riding one, but it doesn't make it a cannondale.
Nice build though, let us know how it rides & holds up over time!
