Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

Have it your way. There are plenty of videos show how carbon fiber structures are laid up from sheet CF and resin. Though not identical, there are plenty of parallels to how fiberglass structures are laid up from sheet and resin (which was the point).

In any case, it's not how the parts are made, but the specific resin used, and it's compatibility with the solvents in your paint. I'm not saying you'll have problems, just that since you don't know which resin was used, you should check with the manufacturer about solvent vulnerability.

But of course, feel free to disregard.
