I am now at the stage where my wheels are in need of stripping and powdercoating or polishing so I am thinking that maybe it would be a good time to go the whole hog and respray the plastics too. I have a 2000 speed triple and she is looking a little tired. I am thinking of having the plastics sprayed matt black or grey and the wheels black. When using a matt finish paint, does it still have a coat of clear lacquer to seal it?

I believe its the clear coat that will be matt or satin?!

Unless you really love cleaning your bike don't go for a matt finish

The Triumph matt finishes have a matt lacquer.
