I never clear coated my Zambini emblems.  I just washed them the same as the bike.

I ran them under very warm water to form them to the tank, then I used silicone adhesive to install them.  Only one came off in my accident, and they were on since 2009 through all kinds of weather.

That airbox cover looks a lot like an old Indian horn cover.

I don't wanna hijack this tread, but... man! That airbox (see pic n.1) is really cool!!
Wonder if it's an oem Indian's accessory, or maybe it's been customized...

I was wondering for those that own the Zambini War bonnet (Native American 3) gas tank emblems or the newer version Red Hawk 3 made with the same materials if they had clear coated their emblems?

Also what did you use Silicone adhesive or a different product to adhere them?  What is the most user friendly way to adhere them to the tank?

I spoke with John Zambini and he did not know how they would react being clear coated.  He said he applies an coating to protect them after their made and they just need occasional waxing.

My painter is getting close on finishing the tank painting and I need to decide if clear coating them will have any negative impacts or go with the way they came and just wax now and then.

Thx in Advance
