KBS Coatings DiamondFinish Clear Coat

I recently tried the KBS Coatings Diamond Finish Clear Coat on my car, and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with the results. This clear coat not only provided exceptional protection but also delivered a breathtaking shine that exceeded my expectations. The application process was surprisingly straightforward. The clear coat came in an easy-to-use aerosol can, allowing me to apply it evenly and effortlessly. I appreciated the consistency of the product, as it didn't drip or clump during application, ensuring a smooth finish. Once dried, the Diamond Finish Clear Coat transformed the appearance of my car. Its high gloss finish gave my vehicle a showroom-quality shine that was both eye-catching and professional. The clarity of the coat enhanced the color of my car, making it look sleeker and more vibrant. But it's not just about looks – the KBS Coatings Diamond Finish Clear Coat also provided exceptional protection. It acted as a shield against UV rays, preventing my car's paint job from fading over time. Additionally, it protected against minor scratches and abrasions, keeping my car looking new for longer. Another aspect I appreciated about the Diamond Finish Clear Coat is its durability. Even after countless car washes and exposure to different weather conditions, the clear coat remained intact, without any signs of peeling or chipping. This is a testament to its long-lasting performance and ability to withstand daily wear and tear. Furthermore, the clear coat was quick to dry, allowing me to enjoy my newly coated car within a short period. Its fast-drying formula ensures minimal waiting time between application and driving, which is a huge plus for those with busy schedules. Overall, I highly recommend the KBS Coatings Diamond Finish Clear Coat to anyone seeking a reliable and high-quality solution for their clear coat needs. It offers excellent protection, a stunning shine, and remarkable durability, making it a worthwhile investment for car enthusiasts and professionals alike. Trust me, you won't be disappointed with the results!

I’m not very experienced when it comes to epoxy. Initially, I applied this to the side of a steel desk, neglecting to realize that it stays fluid for awhile as it dries it will gradually cascade down with gravity and form sagging waves on your work. Horizontal application is definitely the way to go. After painstaking removal of my initial mistake, I reapplied it and received acceptable results as you can see in my pictures. It’s not perfect, the surface is still somewhat uneven when applied with a cheap brush, and there are minor air bubbles trapped in the dried coating which may be user error somehow. I may apply another coat to see if that helps smooth out surface imperfections. After curing, I feel confident that the coating will be very robust and offer the utmost protection. I also believe that a spray gun would probably offer a much higher level of precision and quality with application, and could probably have achieved a mirror finish, though probably not with my sad level of expertise. Overall I am very satisfied and will be buying another can. I had some trepidation in ordering this product because of the reviews mentioning that their lids could not be removed, but after not carefully securing the lid and accidentally knocking it over and spilling part of the can’s contents on the floor and there on the lip of the can, I was still able to open it without issue even having epoxy dried over the outside of the can. I give the product 5 stars, and my skill 1 star.

I use it on tools and fishing lures I custom paint. If you don't use a tool, such as a hammer or pliers, down here in Florida, they rust in a hurry. I have wire brushed numerous tools to clean off the rust, then use KBS. it gives them a glassy sheen and protects from them rusting again. I also use it to clear coat custom painted fishing lures as it is waterproof and hard as a rock. Great stuff in my opinion.

KBS Diamond is a pretty well known name in the world of fishing lure painting. It's a fantastic waterproof topcoat sealant and has a fantastic transparency when cured fully. It's very glossy and shiny without looking "oily" like some top coats and a properly cured coat will be smooth to the touch without any rough texture or grit. The one drawback is that the can is VERY prone to drying the liquid out even if you try your best to seal it properly after every use. This results in about a month shelf life before it becomes a giant clear rubbery puck inside the can. As such, if you're going to buy this, consider it ESSENTIAL to have a sturdy airtight container to transfer it to, optimally one that is a dark light-absorbing color to preserve even longer. As long as you do that, this product will absolutely suit your needs.

I hired someone to paint my countertops and they used an acrylic top coat. After about a year and a half, the paint and top coat started to peel. I re-painted the counters and used diamond finish for the top coat. It’s beautiful! I would recommend brushing straight from the can only, as this product begins to set up quickly. Use the softest brush you can find and brush it on a bit thicker than if you were painting. Pouring it into another container for rolling, would cause it to set up too quickly. Ventilate your work area well during and a day or two after using this product. It dries fast, but needs at least 72 hours to dry to a hard finish. It’s an amazing finish! I am very satisfied! The price point is worth every penny and the seller ships immediately. Get ya some!!

This is not a replacement for an automotive clear coat. *I do not claim to be a professional as i don’t do this for a living. But I have been painting cars for years. This is the 4th full paint for 2023*. I have now sprayed the same vehicle with this product twice with basically the same initial result. I have tried every hvlp have, pattern and flow from a 1-2tip between 15-40psi reduced from 0-50% on test panels with the same issue. 25psi at 20% reduced is the only reasonable lay. Can spray dry or wet, straight or ultra reduced. By the time it starts to flow out your 1 molecule away from a run. The first time I used it I ended up with runs everywhere. After wet sanding the thicknesses were so different throughout I had hazing everywhere. I said maybe my fault sanded back to nothing shot a base coat and tried it again. A few hundred dollars and hours upon hours later I’m left with a similar result but without runs and massive orange peel. This product piles on to cover and does not flow out on the panel like off the shelf automotive clear. After another 8hrs of wet sanding I will update with photos. The most similar material I would compare this to is liquid rubber. Even after the 1st go sat for weeks to set up it was still SOFT. Any solvent within a mile will melt this stuff right back to liquid basically. AVOID THIS PRODUCT AT ALL COSTS. Obviously the fishing lue world loves it. I thought it would be an ultra durable 1 part clear that would make life easier. It’s not up to par for use in the auto body world.

This amazing stuff does what no other product can! It's so expensive, but I've tested others and only KBS Diamond holds up to what I need it for. I grouted my floor white and used this as a top coat to prevent flood and traffic/use-related damage in a basement unit (we had a flood and it destroyed my beautiful white grout almost immediately after we'd done it). It has kept my floors perfectly snow white. I mixed in xylene/xylol to thin it, Behr floor grip chips to prevent slipping, and titanium dioxide white powder to give a milky white glow. It went right over the tile easily. I applied it with an epoxy roller. I splashed some on the floor using a paint brush and pushed it into the grout joints, then smoothed it with the roller. I backed myself out of the room doing this. I used two coats and did not sand in between (one coat left uneven coverage). I will say that - strangely - the floors where I'd used a regular grout & tile clear coat (impregnator sealer) beforehand really retained the whitest color. The floors I'd never sealed have some mild staining from this product. I guess I should use 2 coats of impregnator sealer on my tiles first next time. Overall, incredible product, I will use it time and again.

This is probably a very good product for someone who understands the limitations and the proper way to apply it. The good is it seems like a very durable coating that stays flexible after a full cure so it is very resistant to cracking. The bad was a HUGE turn off for me. Read on First of all I couldn't open the can. It was sealed shut and I had to destroy the lid to open it. Pic included was the beginning of the process, I actually had to rip the metal lid to get it open. The contents are water thin at first. I poured out a small amount to apply and sealed the rest in an argon bath from my TIG welder in a ziplock bag. The amount I doled out started to gel very quickly. I applied using a brush and the open time is realistically 5 minutes. After that you are brushing on jello. When applied with a brush you will end up with a thick plasticy looking coating that has significant runs and sags and is generally unattractive. It will also have blobs of semi-cured finish that will stand out like a sore thumb when cured. I am very unhappy with the application I have made but the saving grace of this review is that I think I applied it poorly. Hence the three stars rather than one. I think applied as a spray finish this would be a superior clear finish. It stays flexible even when fully cured and it is supremely clear. I applied it directly to bare steel and it adhered extremely well. If I use it again I will also purchase the 6400 Thinner and apply using an HVLP gun and I think I will be very happy with the result.

Great product. I used an air paint sprayer to apply works great. No need to mix with thinner. No need for hardener. No need to measure. Just spray then let it dry. Give a glossy finish without yellowing. Very happy with it. Highly recommended.

excelnet calidad y fail de usar

Excelente, me encanta

Love this product. Drying time is slow but after a few days it’s so clear, shiny and hard as rock. Just as it stated. I airbrush it also and it air brushes perfectly. Just gotta mix with the thinner for that product and only use about 10% thinner. Thing I don’t like is the price. So so expensive for just a pint.

Rock solid!
