Any one tried 3m Scotchgard paint protector on their fuel tanks? Easy to apply and or remove?

Thanks guys,
Was planning on applying under the seat where the seat mount bumpers rest against the fender.
Also sides of tank were legs rib.

Yeah that is really good idea but make sure that you put a rounded line on the top of your sticker as a straight one is far too easy to see.

Sonny, there are Top Coat products out there that will not leave flaky wax behind. The latest on being F11. This is a spray and wipe product like MC Spirits but better. Expensive but much better.
