KBS Diamond Clear Coat Preparation & Application

[Slash]

Yeah I am more confident to use it again now, it's actually quite easy to work with. I may bite the bullet and buy a compressor too and have a crack at spraying it if I do another.

I must admit I am reluctant to post some of my work as compared to the standards and quality of workmanship from some of the guys here it's a bit embarassing.

at least you have a go and there's nothing embarrassing about that.

Be careful with spraying I believe the safety equipment required is the same as 2 pac.
It drys with moisture so it can't be good to breathe in the mist.

Very nice work on Buck

Yeah that's what swayed me from spraying this first time. I had read that it was even nastier when atomised so decided to go with the brush/roller.

Yeah the danger of the 2-pak put me off too - if something needs an air-fed mask & body-suit it's probably best left to pros. I like the fact that kbs diamond clear & other products offer an alternative for those who want to improve their games diy.

We all started somewhere..

Small steps, but keep plugging away as it appears you have progressed VERY well. The idea is that you are learning and enjoying the process. That's the real result

Nice job you've done there.. looks great

Very interested in this KBS Clear Coat.. Can someone tell me where to get it here in Australia?

Much appreciated: Brettski... :)

Ok I found a supplier on the Gold coast..

I have already used a polyurethane to spot seal artwork and also to fill sunken inserts, will this KBS be ok to use over the top of the poly??

Cheers: Brettski... :)

Yes mate it is... make sure you sand the polyurethane finish though so the KBS grips it

Just be aware that KBS cures with moisture so if you have damp conditions it will set really fast.
Don't get it on your fingers

[pinball god]

Whats it do to your fingers?

[Brettski]

Whats it do to your fingers?

Thanks Chris,

I am in luck, very low humidity at the moment and clear skies. Thanks for the tip about fingers, I will wear gloves.. :)

If there is anything else I should know then now is the time to speak up, I am going to try it out tomorrow. :)

Cheers: Brettski... :)
