FAQs

 

What is Diamond Clear and what does it do?

Diamond clear is a clear coat filler that covers up damage in the clear coat layer over the paint. It is an effective, cheap, fast and easy solution relative to other options.

What are key ingredients?

While the proprietary formula of Diamond Clear is a closely guarded secret, we can disclose that Benzene is a key ingredient that provides much of the color and smell to the product.

What colors are good for Diamond Clear?

Diamond Clear may be applied to any color, however we suggest not applying to white vehicles until practitioners are very comfortable with the product. Imperfections of the application are most easily noticed on white vehicles. 

Why Diamond Clear vs. competitors (are there any?)

To date, there are no products on the market that can match the speed, ability, cost, and ease of use that Diamond Clear affords.

How to care for the car after application?

After application, wait 4-6 hours for Diamond Clear to dry. Mistakes may always be removed by lacquer, paint thinner, and medium reducer.

How do I know if I need to reapply?

We suggest putting at least two coats on each job to ensure that it lasts the longest. Deep scratches may require multiple coats to fill as well.

How long does it last?

Paint: 1-2 years, Plastic: 3-5 years, Headlights: 2-3 years       

How long should I wait to smooth it out?

Time frame is recommended but it should not exceed past 15-20 mins per panel!!!!!

How do we know if Diamond Clear will fix the scratches?

Simple Process 1. Lick your finger and check it will disappear. 2. Medium Reducer will give you a great result to show you if Diamond Clear will work or not!

What is Medium Reducer?

It's a Medium Urethane Reducer made for automotive paint. Can be found on Amazon as a Universal Urethane Medium Reducer.

Why am I not getting the same results as the videos?

We can almost guarantee it boils down to not cleaning out the scratches enough with reducer or you are pulling the product out of the scratches during smooth out.

Lightly smooth over and when approaching the problem area, very lightly work the microfiber cloth over the scratches, allowing the product to remain inside the scratches. 

Can you coat in the Hot weather?

Yes, just break your process down to a panel by panel basis!

Who do I talk to when going to a dealership?

You want to talk to the guy who makes the final decisions! For example, used Car Managers, General Sales Managers or General Managers.

What do I tell the dealership?

There is no one size fits all approach, but having confidence in the product and the service being offered is key!

Where can I get trained on the product?
