Maxima SC1 "New Bike In A Can"

Maxima SC1 High Gloss Coating (78920)—widely referred to across the powersports industry as "New Bike in a Can"—is an aerosol surface protectant, gloss restorer, and mud-release agent engineered specifically for off-road, dual-sport, street, and adventure motorcycles. Unprotected plastics, painted frames, and engine bays rapidly degrade under exposure to UV radiation, mud staining, and roost abrasion. Dried clay and silt bond aggressively to raw textured plastics, requiring heavy scrubbing that dulls factory finishes and scratches vinyl graphics.

Formulated with advanced silicone polymers, SC1 creates a slick, hydrophobic barrier across treated surfaces. It penetrates micro-porosities and surface scuffs in molded plastics to restore deep color saturation and factory luster without yellowing or leaving chalky residue. The slick silicone barrier prevents mud, dirt, and wet sand from adhering to fenders and chassis components, allowing dried trail grime to wash off easily with a garden hose. When applied to clean surfaces and allowed to set, it cures to a dry finish that resists dust accumulation.

Features:

• High-Gloss Finish Restoration: Fills micro-scratches in dull, aged plastics and fiberglass to restore showroom color depth and shine.

• Hydrophobic Mud-Release Barrier: Prevents mud, silt, and loam from bonding to fenders, undercarriages, and radiator louvers during wet rides.

• Surface Compatibility: Safe for use on molded dirt bike plastics (polyethylene, polypropylene, ABS), painted metals, chrome, clear coats, and vinyl decals.

• Dry-Film Formula: Can be buffed to a non-sticky, dry finish that resists static dust attraction.

• Aerosol Fan Spray: Fine-mist delivery provides uniform coverage across intricate engine recesses, suspension linkages, and frame corners.

• Signature Fresh Scent: Features Maxima's distinctive scent formulation integrated into the aerosol carrier.

What's in the Box:

• 1x Maxima SC1 High Gloss Coating Aerosol Can (13.2 oz / 374 g / Part #78920)

Application & Surface Compatibility:

• Recommended Applications: Front and rear fenders, radiator shrouds, airbox covers, side number plates, under-fender arches, swingarms, suspension linkage exteriors, and skid plate undersides.

• Safety Warning (Prohibited Surfaces): DoNOT apply to brake discs, brake pads, calipers, tire treads, footpegs, hand grips, or motorcycle seats. The reduced surface friction will compromise machine control and create severe braking hazards.

• • The Mud-Shedding Wet Coat: For wet or muddy ride days, spray a generous, unbuffed layer of SC1 directly onto the underside of your fenders, inside the radiator louvers, and across the skid plate. Leave the coating wet. The heavy silicone film prevents heavy clay from accumulating on the machine, saving up to 15–20 pounds of dead mud weight during an enduro or race.

  • The Dry Detail Buff: For fairings, exterior bodywork, and standard garage detailing, spray SC1 evenly across clean, dry plastic from 8–10 inches away. Allow the product to set and flash off for 45 to 60 seconds. Then, buff the surface with a clean microfiber towel. This produces a deep gloss shine that is completely dry to the touch and will not attract airborne shop dust or trail silt.

    Wet Coat vs. Buffed Finish (Two Application Modes):

• Brake Rotor Shielding: Never spray SC1 freely in the direction of your wheels or swingarm without shielding critical braking components. Airborne silicone atomization drifts easily onto brake discs and will glaze brake pads, resulting in a spongy brake lever and severe loss of stopping power. Always drape a clean shop towel over the front and rear brake calipers and rotors, or spray SC1 onto a microfiber cloth first when detailing fork lugs and swingarms near the brake discs.
