KBS Diamond Finish Clear Coat???

[Steve Helmick]

This mysteriously popped up on my browser today...I don't do much Amazon, but have a couple of times over the years. It seems to me that I recall somebody trying it a few years ago and wondered how it worked. Do I remember correctly that the second time the can was opened, the stuff was solidified? Was it really fuel proof? Happy or not happy?  Steve

The KBS Clear Diamond finish is NOT fuel proof.  I tried it, the aerosol version, and raw fuel ate it up.  I contacted the manufacturer via email.  The response I got was that the Clear Diamond product was not designed to be resistant to chemicals.  You have to use their two-part product for that.

I don't know of any one-part product that will resist nitro or methanol.  The way I see it, the KBS Diamond Clear might be a bit better than clear dope.  As long as you avoid splashing raw fuel on it, you should be OK.  And, I have no idea how well it resists yellowing over time.

  I think there were several long threads about it, mostly about disappointing results. And as usual, some said it worked OK for them. I think they made a spray can at one time?? Everybody is still searching for that elusive spay one 19 point fuel proof clear finish!!
