psantos1091 0 Posted November 2, 2013 Has anybody encountered any of these in person to confirm they are actually DLC coated and not PVD? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 82 Posted November 2, 2013 Uh - PVD/DLC are, effectively. the same thing. DLC is the coating and PVD is the process by which it is applied. More expensive reps will be the real thing. Some cheapies will actually be powdercoat (i.e. paint) rather than PVD/DLC so a lot less durable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
