Its high gloss finish gave my vehicle a showroom-quality shine that was both eye-catching and professional.

great product, clear, durable, tough finish

I make fishing lures on my wood lathe. The final step is to give it a good clear coat. Trust me, I have used clear coat sprays for the coverage, ease of application, thickness and all the others to get the look I want. For some, they look good until a bass (with its rough inner mouth) twist and pulls. After a few of those catches, the coating is rubbed off, scratches and scars are abundant, and it gets frustrating. I talked to someone that uses this for his woodwork and gave it a chance. It was about $35 for a pint, so I thought it better work. I have a UV light to expedite the hardening, but did not use it for the three lures (pictures attached). Once they dried, I could not be more elated. No runs, no drips and a fantastically smooth coat. There is not any variance for color hues or airbrush results. This will be the only final coating I ever use and despite being a little more costly, it will save you in the long run because of how durable this is.

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.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Read reviews that it's a great product Gloss: Incredibly shiny and hard finish but don't expect much work time! Recoat rather then try to touch up while wet! Works well: Turned epoxy coasters that were being scared by hot beverage cups from trash to useable. Plus added a beautiful shine and amazing depth! Spray quality: Actually, package quality. Immediately plan to decant to a glass bottle and thoroughly read all instructions before using!!!!

Tried two different methods. Regular paint brush and mr clean sponge. This stuff is really sticky. The brush marks did not flow out at all. It did get hard though. If you are going to use you must spray after reducing or dip your product in it. It has been a month since applying product sitting outside no changes. No yellowing. It will run if you try to put it on thick enough to allow it to flow. I did a hood on 1st gen s10. Prep work was not done as this was a test panel. I have not sprayed this product.

A neighbor asked me to repaint their large wooden yard pelican and I quickly agreed, to my regret, because I could not find a single exterior sealant that would keep him safe, but not show yellow over the pure white parts. We bought and tested several supposed "clear coats" on a white paint stick, before finally finding this. It worked beautifully! It is truly CRYSTAL CLEAR over white paint and, as I told them, I am confident they could float it in the ocean for hours without it coming to any harm now. He is indestructible! He will be safe in the rain! However, they loved the new finish so much that they won't put it outside, but keep it indoors. : -)

I was trying to decide between this product and Rust Bullet Clear Shot and can't remember why I chose KBS over Rust Bullet. Both products have a noxious chemical odor and require an incredible degree of ventilation during and after application but I have used Rust Bullet numerous times around the house and it stops off-gassing after about 8-10 hours if not sooner. Unless you can leave your home for a couple of days I would not recommend using KBS DiamondFinish on anything inside a house that people are living in. My family is extremely upset with me and I still have one more coat to apply! We all have headaches and sore throats due to the KBS fumes even with an extraction fan running around the clock and windows open for cross ventilation. I don't even know if this product will survive the test of time but simply the fumes alone and the fact that it should not be used for indoor projects are enough of a reason for me to give it a low rating. I would recommend Rust Bullet Clear Shot as an alternative. I painted an outdoor bench with Clear Shot and it's holding up exceptionally well and looks great. update: I reduced my rating to one star since the KBS coating I applied is still releasing noxious fumes four days after application! I have never used a product that smells this bad for such a long time. I decided to not use KBS for any additional coats and will switch to Rust Bullet clear shot instead. However, the length of time it is taking the KBS coating to fully cure and stop smelling is seriously impeding the progress of my project. final update: called KBS repeatedly about my issues with their product and everyone I spoke to at the company was extremely knowledgable and kind to me. I am still confused why the KBS coating took so long to cure and stop smelling. Supposedly it cures faster with high humidity and I was using it during a rainy period in damp/humid San Francisco, CA. In the end, in order to speed up the curing process, I had to open windows to the outside on rainy days to bring in damp air as well as run a fan blowing air over the stairs I was painting. Even with all of this - the KBS continued to smell for an entire nine days after initial application! After that I had to just move ahead with the work and prep and coat the KBS with Rust Bullet Clear Shot. I would never recommend a coating that takes so long to cure and smells so noxious. My project was held up for well over a week due to my decision to use KBS. I switched to Clear Shot and the noxious fumes were gone within 5-8 hours after application and my project is finally moving forward.

Rock solid!
