Quick edit on this one. This coating has a long flash time. I ended up leaving it on the glass for 8 minutes and then came back to wipe it off. This is an extremely easy to use coating as seen on the video. Stay tuned as I work through the paint coatings and wheel coating. Also these are nano diamond and polymer composite coatings. And not ceramic coatings. Skip to the 21:16 mark if only interested in the coating application.
Hi! My name is Tony! I'm an Ambassador for Diamond ProTech. Great Video! I wanted to say, in our testing we have occasionally experienced issues using other prep products with our coatings. Some work fine, while some produced some less than ideal results. To be on the safe side, using Diamond ProTech Prep products with our coatings will give you the best results! And Yes, the Body Prep and Glass Prep are different! Excited to see your future videos!
Thank you for this information and for watching. One question I did have is the though of using any of the paint coatings with what are referred to a primer polish that contains SiO2 such as CarPro Essence or Gyeon Q2 Primer.
@@MikeGDetailing You want an absolutely bare paint surface for the Diamond ProTech coatings to bond to. Like you said in your video, it's all in the prep! Using a polish that may leave SiO2 behind could negatively impact the coating and its ability to bond. I'd recommend against it, and be sure to use Diamond Body Prep to get any remaining oils/residue off the paint prior to application. - Tony
Saw you post the picture on a detailing forum of all the bottles lined up - so glad someone trustworthy is going to give us some real world experience of these new coatings and cut through the hype! Thanks for taking one for the team Mike!
Thanks. Waiting for this heat wave to pass to polish and apply the paint coating. It was too hot for me when applying the glass coating even in the garage.
Great video. I’ve just recently applied Diamond Glass (bought the kit). Application was fairly straight forward. I agree with you that this coating is not slick at all, would best describe it as ‘smooth’ and that primarily when wiping/cleaning glass with a TRC FTW towel and either P&S Absolute RW 256:1 or CarPro Clarify - dry wiping with a towel has been tacky. I was afraid I would get wiper chatter given the lack of slickness and I did experience some. So I thought let me add some slick topper to an area and see what happens. This coating does not play well with what seems to be SiO2 based toppers from my personal experience - OG Drying Aid and AMMO Reflex Top Coat - smearing/rejecting/leaving the glass looking cloudy. Cleaned it up with P&S Absolute RW which fortunately removed the cloudiness/residue and left a smoother surface. Moving forward I won’t be topping it with anything and after a car wash just once over with Absolute diluted 256:1. I will be applying Diamond Body on the wife’s SUV soon, so I’m curious if Body will have the same rejection/cloudiness when using SiO2 toppers like OG Drying Aid or AMMO Reflex Top Coat. Do you have any feedback on this?
I have only used Shine Supply Throttle as a topper and that seemed to play well. Diamond Protech states there is no need for a topper. I don't think they realize the use of a drying aid and how big it is during the wash process.
I coated my car with Gyeon view, cleaned the wipers with Gyeon Tire which were new anyway and applied the coating to the wipers and windscreen (3 layers to windscreen as advised by Gyeon). After 3 months I'm getting wiper judder🙁
I’ve never used Gyeon View but is it possible it has been degraded in that 3 month time frame to warrant another application? It seems like a quick application refresh.
I can't wait to see how long it lasts and how well it will repel dirt and dust adhesion. compared to ADS and other coatings . Then real questions is new technology in coatings or just marketing hype. Looks easy enough to work with.
Finalized my order for the Rim Coating plus the Interior Protectant. Happened to do this just as you released your latest video. Time stamp was 5 minutes on release of yourvideo.
I just did the Diamond wheel coating on my wheels last week. I have a 22 SS 1LE with 20x10 front and 20x11 rears. Did 2 coats on face 1 coat on barrels and 1 coat on calipers and still have half bottle left. Stuff goes a very long way and crazy easy to use. like 90% flashed off in a min and I had almost nothing left to level off.
@@05xrunner thanks for the feedback on the wheel coating. I will be putting the paint coating Body on my 2002 Camaro SS. I’m polishing in mid 80 degree temps in my garage at the moment. I will also be putting the wheel coating on this car. At the moment not sure what I am goi g to do with Body 36.
@@MikeGDetailingI put Gyeon Can coat EVO on my car already. I got it almost 2weeks ago. I decided I didnt like it and I am waiting on my order of Diamond Body to redo the car with that coating. I just went with Body as the car isnt going to be used in the winter so the 36 wouldnt be needed for me. I hope the paint coating is as easy as the wheel coating was.
Applied the Diamond Glass yesterday amd noticed on my way into work that I had some high spots. Do you think I'll be able to go over it again with coating today?
I have both. Body is going on my 2002 Camaro SS. Not sure about Body 36. Tempted to polish the 1.5 year old P&S Legend of the daily driver and use it on that.
Applied this yesterday in 80* 70% humidity. Waiting about 10min then buffed off. Everything looks great but it doesn't feel slick like a Si02 spray coating (typically use Griots 3-1 spray) it feels more rubbery. Is that normal? Thanks
Well unfortunately I don’t have that answer. This is for two reason. First I don’t drive this car in the rain and the second is that it rarely rains here in Southern California. It’s mostly for maintenance purposes to make washing easier for me. If I find someone else to test it then I will pos track feedback.

Will do. They state no topper is required for their coatings. I am sure this will change at some point.

cant wait to try this will be my first glass coating

Yeah let’s hope it lives up to the claims. They state no toppers are required.
Mike how has this glass coating holding up? Thanks
Given that this car doesn’t get driven in rain, it’s holding up great 😂. I need to apply it to an actual daily driver.
Hi Mike, great video as always 👍 , is there any cure time for this coating?
No cure time according to Diamond pro tech
@@MikeGDetailing thank you, just coated glass on my car, it's so easy to work with this product
Finalized my order for the Rim Coating plus the Interior Protectant.

Nice order. I may pick up the interior coating when the quick body spray sealant comes back in stock.

You could try that in a small area but I suspect you may be past that point and will need to polish it off and reapply.
I enjoy using ArtDeShine products. It will be interesting to see how this new glass coating performs over time versus the ArtDeShine Glass coating.
Artdeshine glass coating is great. It’s done a good job on the glass. Version 2 is much better.
Damnit California!!! I love Eraser
First going towards EV’s and now Eraser. Come on 😂
@@MikeGDetailing right?
Looking forward to the paint coating.
I have both. Body is going on my 2002 Camaro SS. Not sure about Body 36. Tempted to polish the 1.5 year old P&S Legend of the daily driver and use it on that.
Looks very interesting.
Would you do two-3 coatings on the glass?
Only one layer needed with this coating. A second layer is optional and I would only add a second layer on glass that has wipers..
Applied this yesterday in 80* 70% humidity. Waiting about 10min then buffed off. Everything looks great but it doesn't feel slick like a Si02 spray coating (typically use Griots 3-1 spray) it feels more rubbery. Is that normal? Thanks
Yes this is normal as this coating is not slick.
How well does it work so far? Does it repel right off the shield right away & any studder at all from the blades on the windshield?
Well unfortunately I don’t have that answer. This is for two reason. First I don’t drive this car in the rain and the second is that it rarely rains here in Southern California.
