Aloízio Geraldo de Araújo Júnior

The sol–gel process is a wet chemical technique also known as chemical solution deposition, and involves several steps, in the following chronological order: hydrolysis and polycondensation, gelation, aging, drying, densification, and crystallization. Silica coatings have been prepared from sol-gel precursor solutions having a viscosity in the range of 2 to 20 mPa·s.

Try something like this for a low-tech solution! I haven't applied it myself, and I'm 100% sure of the brand, but I've ridden with someone who applied it.
