Hi J,

I think you've considered the important factors and made a very good decision for your bike stable. The paint is very normal, so I expect the Finish Line polish should work well. It'll have no negative effect on the frame; even if a paint chip exposes the carbon, both carbon fibres and cured epoxy are inert and won't react with polishes nor most workshop chemicals.

Cheers,
