Ceramic coating vs PPF
Just picked up my new bike and I'd like to protect the paint while it's still in good shape. Looking for advice on which product is the best bang for the buck?
Thanks!
Thanks!

PPF is your best protector of the paint. Find a local guy and have him apply it. If he does not know, show him how to remove the tank console and anything else like that. You want the entire piece covered
PPF then coated. I use Halo

have you considered learning how to do it? Maybe you already do? I've been looking at videos on youtube and it doesn't look too hard

Agree with PPF offering more protection vs ceramic coating. One of my cars has full PPF with a ceramic coating on top, that’s the order of operations (after paint correction being performed). If you go that route, ensure you use wash soap that is PH neutral and PPF friendly. Typical/popular wash soaps will produce a hazy finish and can yellow the film over time. Also good to use a ceramic coating booster spray every few months to maintain the coating / your investment.
