The material is a dense, \nextremely hard form of amorphous carbon which possesses many mechanical \nand thermal properties of its crystalline sibling,CVD diamond. \u003c\/font\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont face=\"arial\"\u003eBecause of the hardness and amorphous nature of \nDLC, the nano-coating is highly wear resistant and conforms to all of \nthe imperfect structural inconsistencies in a polished metal surface.  \nSo the coating actually makes a polished metal surface even smoother.\nIn addition,the coating has virtually NO FRICTION (more slippery than \nTeflon), so there is no metal-on-metal wear when it's pressed and \ndragged continuously against guitar strings.\n\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont face=\"arial\"\u003e\u003cfont face=\"arial\"\u003eThe result is an \nextremely hard surface that doesn't wear, and will not abrade the metal \nit's rubbing against, e.g. guitar strings.\n\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cfont face=\"arial\"\u003e\u003cfont face=\"arial\"\u003e\u003cfont face=\"arial\"\u003eHave a question about this item?
