    Got a mate looking to get his carbon frame repainted – Argos used to do carbon stuff, but apparently no longer do…

    Any pointers?

    Try harder. Google is better than the STW search.

    polyurethane based paints would be the way to go for carbon.

    Car body shop paint supplier here!
    All you need to do is lightly sand/prep and use an adhesion promoter or plastic primer and then treat like anything else. I would recommend basecoat colour followed by 2 pack clear lacquer and then allowed to air dry and NOT forced dried!
