I've had Ventureshield on the tanks of my last three bikes. It's excellent stuff - virtually invisible and really protective.

My stuff is for gloss paint but, when I picked up the kit from Chipguard (http://chipguard.co.uk/), I asked the owner, Steve, whether he did film for satin finishes (because my friend has a matt Tuono). He said they had developed a new product that was still virtually invisible.

Give Steve a ring on 07809399880 or drop him an email to steve@chipguard.co.uk. He's very helpful and might send you a small sample if you ask nicely so you could try before you buy. When I asked, he sent me an extra A5 sheet at no extra charge.
