    You can buy an aerosol can product called "Frost wrap" or similar,and do the tank wrap yourself.

    Delboys garage has videos on this very subject:

    and others

    The trouble with Matt is that it can't be restored the normal way using liquid cutting pastes as it then becomes smooth therefore shiny. A flat with 800+ w'n'dry then a re-lacquer with Matt lacquer will do it if your capable as this is the proper way. Failing that as everyone mentioned vinyl it
