My experience has been different. I had gone for teflon coating on my bike in 2003. Its been almost 7 years since then and the bike painted still looks relatively new and glossy. This is inspite of riding for 40k kms and daily washing with soap n water :)

Hi all, I once had to get some Aluminium components (work related) coated with Teflon. When I got them back with the coating, the paint on the reverse of the component had been completely burnt off, because of the temperature involved in applying the Teflon. I then had to get them repainted at a nearby garage. Since then I have never bothered to even listen to some one selling "Teflon Coating" for bike/car.
