Paint protection - recommendations please

[paturoa]

I want to put scuffproof on the new wee to protect the paint. (I had it on the SV, and it worked a treat - butt ugly though)

I found this thread http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ght=scuffproof and several other search references.

So I took a trip to motomail and cycletreads and both had scuffproof for about $30 for a 1 meter roll. http://www.motoretail.co.nz/eStore/S...UFFPROOF1.aspx which I though was a bit steep.

So - any recommendations please.

I think that the standard Scuffproof is too thick. My 'bird 3M product was applied by an automotive film application and pinstriping company. The film is a lot thinner and almost invisible. They put it on my tank cutouts, back of tank, front of fairing and top of front guard for about $200. Flawless job. There's quite an art to doing it decently. Had it on several years and it still looks great.

vstrom 650 - called "wee" stroms

Googled that and that looks better than the scufffproof brand. I might still use the thick scuffproof stuff where the soft panniers would touch the bodywork.
