possibly. There are certain products like Wolfs Body wrap, Gtechniq C1, Carpro CQuartz UK that are Quartz type coatings, durability on some of these can be upto (and over if low milage) a year!, they also leave a physical coating behind too. with these new nano-coatings, care must be taken, or the product will need to be polished off before paintwork to help with colour matching etc.
Also, and you probably know this, After a paint job, you need to be careful for a few weeks with any products containing silicone, like those spray silicones above, as it can react badly with fresh paint before its had ample chance to "gas off".
In response to the earlier question about coating Visors/Helmets earlier from someone, I re-did my Helmet tonight with Carpro HydrO2 (and did my visor with my usual Gtechniq G5), heres a quick video of its sheeting abilities, as you can imagine, sheeting rain off at speed is not an issue much:
I tried to do a side-by-side on a spare visor too, but didnt protect the inside and so the video didnt show up very well (schoolboy error!).
