Used Awlgrip on mine, it's six or seven years now. Still looks perfect. The incredible hardness of the paint can make it difficult to repair. It doesn't scratch easily but if you give it a good blow it will chip. Have only had to touch-up one, and it takes some patience to do. Glad I used it. Awlgrip will send you a nice package describing their products and some application procedures that are very helpful.
