Anybody else got a grey 748s
 
I was wondering about polishing/protecting paint. My dealer said to use normal polish but it will never come up glossy/shiny( I know its not mean't to be shiny). I get a white coating left almost, and it looks like loads of scratches where its been touched until you rub the powder away. Is there a specific matt polish avaliable?. I love the raised decals on the bike though.

And its so different, Grey is faster than red or yellow.

:roll::roll::roll:

Thanks

You cant polish undercoat, send it back to Ducati and have them apply the red top coat!:lol::D:lol:

I know I can't polish it, I just want a good wax/polish to protect the paint.

The undercoat is white on my bike and not grey l:lol::lol::lol:

Thanks

Lee, if it is polish you are afte, I would use Mr Sheen or back to black, which is a silicone base polish. It won't dry white.

I would think that just by washing regulary with an additive in the water to remove road grime would be enough. The grey looks great in that satin finish, I think any further gloss would spoil the look imo.
