yes, I polished and waxed mine today...you just have to clean the very edge carefully to get residue off.

Shouldn't you have waited since your CF hood is brand new before you polish and wax? I know for fresh paint you should let it cure for 30-90 days (depends who you ask) before you use any kind of polish or wax. Just wondering if this applies to a CF hood as well?
