    Paint Protection

    Hii all
    i have a 6month old unicorn. i want to protect the paint from fading. I have done teflon coating during the 1st service but it seems to be of no use since i can notice paint getting slightly faded in the regions which are in touch with our body like the petrol tank region, grab rail(when pillion sits with bag) etc.

    One of my friends having a 1.5yr old unicorn has got its paint faded significantly. It seems to be old bike.

    So help in choosing the right thing for my bike, whether it is wax or liquid polish or whatever, tell the best thing available.
    Or should i do teflon coating again? But i dont think teflon coatings last much.

    The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

      Check out for Carnaburra Wax in any Automobile Shop - Wax your bike once in a Week or once in 10 days....
      This will form an Protective layer for your Bikes Paint and thus avoids Fading....
      Meanwhile Company claimed Teflon Coatings are Useless and they are just a Strategy for earning Money....

            ya you are correct in service center they charged me Rs.450 for Teflon coating but no use.
            Use some Polish sprays once in a two months.I'm using Twister green one for a past 1.5yrs i'm regularly use spray polish once in two months.Still my bike paint dint get fade & even the shining is also look like new.

              Get the bike lacquer coated once&for all-the paint will never fade, even if you park it in direct sunlight!
