Just about to protect my titanium frame and normally for gloss paint - no brainer. Gloss tape.

But for brushed titanium - Matte or Gloss? Not really interested in try this tape or that tape! I’m going invisiframe as used it before and its the easiest and best looking of all the tapes I’ve used (no wrinkles / bubbles and unlike most its…well….invisible!

I know i dont really need to but finding 2-3 rides and my bike packing bags polish the frame and make it look crap against the matt. Almoat worse than a painted frame with loads of paint chips & scratches. Getting sick of “rebrushing” with the scouring pads!

Can't answer your question except as a hunch, go for Matt. But might also be worth checking that it will stick to a brushed Ti frame, apparently it won't play well with anodised frames.

Hadn’t thought about that. I’m thinking matt too.

Got some cut-offs from the last wrap so will give it a try before ordering.
