paint

-- i know i have debated the 3M film kits over the years - never did do more than a tank protector - but here is a new product, just released early May 2013, that seems to have inspired me (i bought it yesterday) 3M Paint Defender Spray Film with synthetic wax - Sprayable Paint Protection...

Love the Ducati red, but wanted to do something a little different. Im lucky to have a painter in my family :D All work was done by brother who works at my family's body shop and also has his own motorcycle business N&T Motowerkes. They specialize in custom paintwork and race prep for all...

I found this awesome product on fleabay, it is a Carbon Fiber spray. It sprays a CF pattern on any material. I ordered some ($6.95) and tried it. On black plastic it is really accurate, from any distance you cannot tell the difference! I will put up some pics after work.

I have a few marks on the side fairings and one big one on my front fairing from either a rock hitting it or someone gently hitting it with something else. I know Colorrite matches OEM paint, has anyone used and applied this? If so, how did it turn out? I would rather not spend a lot of money on...

Ordered race fairings for the Pani and want to spray them with some color. I was thinking just all red and some simple vinyl white graphics. Don't want to make them too nice 'just in case' :D. So I mocked this up this weekend on the stock fairings just for a look. Sorta the Ducati company...

hi quick inquire is anyone from melbourne interested in paint protection film been installed? i spoke to david from Xpel whos located in Sydney that distributes the Xpel ultimate and he wouldnt mind the business if its worth his time so im inquire if you want a DIY kit or installer...

So I'm always fascinated by the paint jobs I see people doing to their plastics, and I've always wanted to get my race plastics done, but I have no idea where to look. If you have any experience in this, how did you get it done?? (I'm not doing it myself, I don't trust me that much!)...

My Pani is 7 months old and I've done around 2,400km. I've noticed the paint seems to be fading, or more accurately hazing, around the fuel tank hard edges. I've never placed anything on it, it's almost as if the paint has hazed from wind resistance or something. Has anyone else got the same...

Not scratches but some sort of paint issue in front of gas cap on top of tank. Im thinking it has to do with overspray while filling up. The "spots" are many and seem to be under the clear coat. I cannot remove them.

Can any one clarify for me if the 1199R petrol tank scheme is polished aluminium or silver paint? I'm getting conflicting info.

Oh Bugger! Took the key out of the ignition the other day before getting off the bike, as I lifted my leg over to get off the bike I scratched the tank with the key in my hand (key quite sharp). About an inch and a half long. Any way of covering it up? Touch up maybe?

just curious never used it and wonder if its worth the full bra kit? avery nano or 3m or ventureguard. how long b4 you have to replace it or start to notice dirt under the skin?

Just wondering if any of you guys have dealt with paint protection film like 3m ventureguard for the whole bike. I'm worried that it would obscure the look by seeing lines everywhere. Please tell me your experience and would you recommend it

Several members have taken my advice and reached out to my good friend, and Ducati paintwork specialist in Connecticut. Right now Sean is doing one of the biggest Panigale pieces for a guy who wants the most kick ass paint scheme ever done. As a serious carbon fiber lover I had to show this...

Hows it going. I've been searching online for awhile now and I can't seem to find the specific paint code and details (# coats for base/# of clear coats ect.) for the 1199..... I know Ducati has changed their "RED" over the years so I really didn't want it to be an "off" Red. Any info would be...

Aussie guys who have their bikes, have you experiences any of the soft paint or easy chipping / scratching issues reported a while ago? I pick mine up on Tuesday and am wondering if protection is necessary right off the bat. cheers fellas, 1199exxon

I picked up a full 3M kit from Tankslapper and figured I'd take a few pre-install pics with the kit taped to the bike so members can see whats covered and what's not. What I found interesting was the lack of protection on the lower half of the bike down around the slip-ons.

This is the lower fastener for the screen. Looks like they put it on before the paint had a chance to dry. Didn't notice this until today.

ANYONE HAVE THIS INSTALLED??? I'm 99.99% certain I'm going to buy this before I put a scratch on mine... Ducati Superbike 1199 Panigale InvisiGARD Paint Protection Kit
