I'm beginning to realize my SPCycle road bike has some of the cheapest paint/gloss work. Every little nick or bump causes the paint to chip. I've been using nail polish to fill little scratches, but now it seems to be a monthly occurrence. Usually I'm careful, but I always notice some random paint scratch/chip appear. I'm almost tempted to repaint the whole bike or just cover my bike in protective tape.
Anyways, I'm wondering what the rest of you are doing to to maintain your bike cosmetically?
