Hi,
I was wondering if anyone worked on matte finished carbon inserts? I have those glossy carbon insert. EVERYTHING else is matte, soft touch, non glossy. But the insert and hood cover can't be found in matte finished products. Any idea how to go from glossy to matte? Super fine wet sandpaper? Thanks, Ben Re: Carbon insert - Matte finish

What specific parts are you looking for in matte finish?
VoodooRods carries matte finish hood pieces and carbon inserts. Various hood cover pieces from: [voodoorods.com] Reel seat inserts: [voodoorods.com] [voodoorods.com] The matagi reel seat inserts are sold by the inch, so order the right length that you need. Re: Carbon insert - Matte finish

I use the matte (M) finish Fuji carbon sleeve inserts (CS) and carbon thread covers (CTC) for their KDPS, KSKSS, and TVSK hidden thread hoods. The matte finish is a perfect match for the NFC 3K soft touch grips. However, the CTC matte thread cover is hard to find. Anglers Resource stocks them but most retailers don’t, and I don’t understand why. For the NFC 1K soft touch grips the American Tackle matte 3K carbon G2 sleeve for the uni-lock hood is a perfect match. This hood sleeve will fit Fuji KSKSS and TVSK hidden thread hoods.

Back in the day we used X Fine Scotchbrite pad to turn shiny blanks into matt blanks. Re: Carbon insert - Matte finish
