what to do with a cf hood to make her shine?

KK so on my EG I got a carbon fibre hood but it's very dull and there seems to be some sun damage. There's a bit of cracking/scratches as well. What is the best thing to make it shine on a budget v.s. results basis?

Clearcoat it

Finishing compound

Other?

try peanut butter. not the chunky kind, the one thats smooth. (not joking btw, try it on a small section first. apply it on, wait for a couple minutes then wipe it off with a clean cloth)
