ABSTRACT:
A method of making a scratch resistant coated article which is also resistant to attacks by at least some fluorine-inclusive etchant(s) for at least a period of time is provided. In certain example embodiments, an anti-etch layer(s) is provided on a glass substrate in order to protect the glass substrate from attacks by fluorine-inclusive etchant(s), a scratch resistant layer of or including DLC is provided over the anti-layer(s), and a seed layer is provided between the anti-layer(s) and the scratch resistant layer so as to facilitate the adhesion of the scratch resistant layer while also helping to protect the anti-layer(s). Optionally, a base layer(s) or underlayer(s) may be provided under at least the anti-etch layer(s).
