I have a fair complexion and use sunscreen quite a bit. I have had great success with bullfrog spray-on no-rub sunscreen. It lasts all day, is sweat-proof & water-proof and doesn't require my hands to touch it at all.
Umlungu, I am assuming that your bike has a nude finish.
If I ever have to send my bike back to Calfee, I will probably strip the paint off and leave it nude. I had heard that the nude finish is more rugged and looks new longer than paint. However, I have also heard that the sun will dry out the finish and that sunblock or Armor All is required as treatment
My question. If one neglects to treat the finish often enough, can sun damage to the frame be reversible?
