    This stuff’s been really popular in the custom fishing lure painting circles for some time. (They dip ‘em) Be warned that if you get any on the lip of the can it will glue the lid on rock solid. I’ve seen guys have to cut or drill the can to get it out. It’s pretty much impervious to most solvents when dry. Seems like it has a real short shelf life as well, a lot of guys shoot some Bloxygen before sealing the can. IIRC it was originally intended to be some sort of concrete sealant and they discovered it sticks to bare metal (and everything else) like crazy. It’s a moisture-cure urethane

    Just a tip, all the fishing lure guys usually dip the lures instead of spraying, but the biggest thing with KBS is any air from a not very good sealed can ,WILL DRY IT OUT. they all pour it in a mason jar,, and put a zip lock bag or saran wrap over mouth of jar,then screw on lid, use what amount you need,BUT IMMEDIATELY put plastic back on jar, and screw on lid tightly, many vids out there on how to properly use it

    DiamondFinish Clear can be brushed on, rolled on, or even applied using an applicator. Normally it is used on Cars, trucks, motorcycles and even boats to make them look brand new. You simply use it out of the can and do not need to worry about using the thinner as many other clearcoats will. DiamondFinish will also resists heat up to 300 degrees before yellowing, resists acids, salts to name a few and is very flexible. This is the first time I have seen it used on this type of plastic and I agree, it does make them look great. I also agree that using the thinner with the DiamondFinish Clear as you have done for the paint sprayer was a great idea and most likely a requirement, so you do not damage the brush or plug it up while spraying. Thank you for sharing the video.

      Hola compañero he leído su experiencia con Diamond.Yo estoy buscando algo así para barnizar mis señuelos de pesca que hago en madera y poder sumergirlos en la lata para evitar el mal olor como me pasa cuando los barnizo con 2k para coches con aerógrafo el olor es insoportable y aunque lo hago en el local el olor llega hasta 2 plantas hacia arriba y mi mujer no lo soporta 😅Le estaría muy agradecido si me aconsejaría comprar el Diamond para barnizar los señuelos y si tiene tanto olor como el 2k. Saludos desde Costa del Sol (Málaga España

      @@miguelmorenoaranda5973 Por favor perdona mi español. Hacía mucho tiempo que lo usaba. Al comparar el olor del acabado claro Diamond Finish y los acabados claros 2K en el contexto de la pintura de señuelos para pesca, es esencial examinar su composición, aplicación e impacto ambiental.
      El acabado claro Diamond Finish es típicamente un acabado claro acrílico a base de agua que contiene niveles más bajos de compuestos orgánicos volátiles (COV), lo que resulta en un olor relativamente suave debido a la ausencia de disolventes agresivos. Los usuarios a menudo informan que el olor es menos ofensivo y más tolerable en comparación con las opciones a base de disolventes, lo que lo hace adecuado para aplicaciones en interiores o entornos donde la ventilación es limitada. Sin embargo, aunque el olor es más suave, es importante señalar que algunos usuarios aún pueden detectar un aroma notable, especialmente durante la fase de aplicación.
      Por otro lado, los acabados claros 2K son generalmente a base de disolventes y constan de dos componentes: la base y el endurecedor. Al mezclar estos componentes, se inicia una reacción química que, en última instancia, conduce a un acabado duradero. Estos acabados claros suelen tener un olor más fuerte debido a los niveles más altos de COV y la presencia de disolventes como el tolueno y el xileno. Aunque el olor fuerte puede ser abrumador, muchos profesionales prefieren el acabado duradero y robusto que proporcionan los productos 2K, lo que puede reducir la necesidad de mantenimiento futuro. Sin embargo, el olor puede persistir incluso después del proceso de aplicación y secado, lo que requiere ventilación adecuada y, a veces, equipo de protección respiratoria durante su uso.
      En términos de seguridad, ambos acabados claros deben aplicarse en áreas bien ventiladas. Sin embargo, el riesgo de inhalación asociado con los vapores de disolventes es notablemente más alto con los acabados claros 2K, lo que hace que el equipo de seguridad sea necesario.
      En última instancia, si el control del olor es una preocupación principal al pintar señuelos para pesca, es probable que el acabado claro Diamond Finish sea la mejor opción debido a su menor contenido de COV y su aroma más suave. Por el contrario, aquellos que requieren un acabado más robusto y duradero pueden encontrar que los beneficios de los acabados claros 2K-a pesar del olor más fuerte-valen la pena. La decisión entre las dos opciones dependerá de las prioridades del usuario, ya sea la facilidad de aplicación y la comodidad con el acabado claro Diamond Finish o la durabilidad y resistencia química con los acabados claros 2K. Es importante recordar que siempre se deben tomar las medidas de seguridad adecuadas, especialmente al usar productos 2K.

    The Diamond Clear is also available in a spraycan and has the advantage of indefinite shelf life. If you use the can you need to get a paint saver that you spray into the open can to displace the air and this keeps the material from curing in the can.

    Hey, love your reviews (and have spent an inordinate amount of money on my paint collection since subscribing 😂😭), but I have an opinion question for you!
    If you were rating based on both durability AND level of gloss, what would you say is the absolute best clear gloss for airbrush? I currently rotate between Tamiya X-22, Mr. Color Super Clear II, and Hobby Mio Glazened, but I find them all to be better than the other two in different ways (i.e. Tamiya levels the best, Mr. Color offers the glossiest finish, Hobby Mio is most durable), and I'm looking for something that's kind of a "best of all worlds" clear gloss for candy finishes.

    I've been trying to spray clear coat through a 0.3mm airbrush, but it's just not working right. I thinned (50/50) with acetone+butyl acetate, and it was a disaster. I had what looked like cotton candy or spider webs spraying out of my airbrush. I think with the fast drying thinner and the small needle size caused the failure. I think I just need to invest in a 0.7 or 0.8 mm airbrush.

    I have been using it a few months and it's a great cheaper alternative, works well on acrylic also.

    I have a Mr hobby ps290 and I love it but I don't know what psi to spray at with the round air cap and my primer turns out orange peeled. Does anybody know what psi I should use?

    • @barbatosrex9473
      @barbatosrex9473  2 роки тому +1

      20 psi should do it. If your paint is grainy then I would thin it out more

      It takes longer to dry than 2K but it does harden. I'll put the pieces in my dehydrator often too and that helps speed it up. Maybe it's environment

    NEVER leave oxygen in the can or it will go off. You either need to float something on top of the clear or spray an oxygen blocker in the headspace before closing the can. Letting the whole can go off is an expensive mistake...don't make it.

    So this isnt a bullshit product? I use acme's finish 1 overall clear for most small jobs but if this stuff is legit im in. 1k paint solves all kinds of problems with where i can spray and ppe i have to use. One of the guys i worked with when i first started out whod just wear a dust mask regardless of what paint type, now has neurogical and parkinsons type issues at 52 years old. His doctor thought he was just a parkinsons victim but the other symptoms had him sent out for more tests and basically he poisoned himself with isocyanates over years by not wearing a mask rated for organic vapors shit is no joke
