    Glossy and flat paint on same surface?

    I just bought a motorcycle that has clear coated paint and flat black graphics on the same fender and tank. The bike never gets washed, I only use quick detailers. What detailer spray would be right for both kinds of paint, the flat paint is Harley Denim black? Would like one product.
    Thx.

    Hi
    I would use a Waterless Wash, i use Wolfgang Uber Rinseless, mixed waterless ratio, works great though on a car.
    Others will recommend as well

    I use Ech20 mixed with sio2 sealant and doesn’t seem to add any gloss to my matte/gloss black wheels. If don’t want to mix your own try Car pros elixir.

    If worse comes to worse...you could
    always use what has been tested and
    approved by HD (~8-9 dollars):

    BugSlide works great for matte and gloss paint. I use it on my Harley all the time. My paint is glossy, but friends have used it and it does not make their denim paint shine. Just cleans it and leaves a layer of uv protection.
