    Welcome in Davy. Always great to see new members. They hadn't invented Matt paint when I bought mine but someone on here will know. Great to have you aboard

    I’ve an RX, I use some PH neural paint shampoo from Dodo Juice, that’s about it. Had mine since new, so just over 3 years, love it still.

    Welcome:675cc:
    I’m sure @Captain Steffydog means polish not paint.
    I’ve got matte black, it’s not been treated to anything special other than vulcanet wipes (great stuff) but I’ve found it surprisingly hard wearing.

    Not polish, ph neutral paint shampoo, it doesn’t have any wax content :)

    Being a black matte must help i think. my silver one was covered in little stone chips after 1000 miles the base coat or plastic was black underneath.
