Moto GP Ceramic Coat

Hi

I'm in the process of buying a new 797 and the dealer had offered MotoGP Ceramic Coat for £199. Its apparently a very good paint and plastics protector. It has a 3 year warranty

Has any one used it/know anything about it?

Nick

Buy a ceramic paint protection kit and do it yourself and save a few quid.
It’s a money making racket on cars aswell!

An example

I definitely wouldn't pay £199 for it.

It'll still coat you about £60 for the stuff, you'll want to do a good wash first, snow foam? then clean the surfaces a bit more, rub the stuff in and give it a good 24hrs..
Lot of effort which is where the price comes in, though cheap compaired to some of the high end treatments that run to 4 figures, again mostly bundled into the prep I understand.

The one Evans Halshaw uses on Citroen cars is sold in their dealerships for £200+.. The exact same product was available in ebay for a fiver

Here are Amazons offerings starting at £3.98.

Get some G-techniq or Gyeon. Much cheaper and just as good. Just make sure you get the prep work.
