Scabby Panniers - Paint or Wrap?

[Gerbil007]

Hi everyone. The finish on the panniers on my 2013 have suffered a little from boot scuffs and the like. I'd be interested to hear what others have done to correct this, and what might be the most cost effective option?

wrap

This. without a question the cheapest solution. Just let somebody who know what they are doing to do the job.

although I already had the black ones I did wrap them with decals. I used these. https://effettiadventure.com/?lang=en
Very good quality and thick. Put them on myself using the tape and split method of putting them on. Tape into position, remove half of the backing, cut and then stick and then remove tape and do the second half

I do recall an older thread about this as well.....

Farecla G3 and a polishing mop, unless your boots have scuffed through to the primer layer.

Mine had a clear wrap fitted by previous owner which saves the pain finish. If they hadn't and it was needed, I'd wrap rather than paint.
