Listening to the radio on the way to Newie today and heard Altapac were spruking some paint protection film that is virtually invisible that protects your paint from chips etc. Would this be any good for a tank on a bike or are paint chips a rarity on a tank?

Any ideas?

Looks to be the same stuff that Ozishield sell.

I have a roll of it but just waiting for the new tins to turn up. Going to put it under the touring seat as well as it has rubbed a mark on the guard.

1.0m x 600mm VentureShield cost me about $60 from Ozishield. Couldn't see a price on the  ALTAPAC site

 

 

A friend of mine has the Altapac protection on his bike (front fender and front of tank). From two metres away you can't see it but closer you can. He reckons he wouldn;t get it again as not worth the money (wasn;t cheap - but he had it cut and fitted at the shop). As you would expect his experience is anything big enough that would chip/dent the paint generally breaks through the plastic layer in any case and causes damage, just not quite as much I would think.

Thanks for the replies. Interesting to see how Aussies Ozishield goes. The ad from Altapac says its virtually invisible. They wouldnt lie to me would they? hahahahahahaha

I found that the best thing for covering stone chips is nailpolish....cheap too

Looks good. Cant see any dogs balls hahaha

If he was sitting there you would.

Actually all jokes aside can I see the bike. The whole bike that is. Im liking the paint work I can see.

Here ya, dogs balls & all...............actually he covered his balls up.

Very freaking nice MMMMMAAAAAAAATTTTTTEEEEEEEE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and the bikes not bad too. Just kidding. Nice bike and paint. I see the metallic fleck stands out in the sun.
Whats the dogs name?
Thanks for the photos.

Cougar but I should have called him Bear. Give up trying to keep a collar on him becuause his neck's as wide as his head.

He likes to play fetch but I can't throw the sticks he chooses 

Its hard to find a dog of his build now days. They seem to all be little midget things. I thought a man of your stature could throw a stick like that? hahahahaha
