Scratch resistance (SR) of a coated article is improved by buffing the coated article after deposition of the layer(s) of the coating. For example, in certain embodiments a diamond-like carbon (DLC) inclusive layer(s) is deposited on a substrate (directly or indirectly), and thereafter buffed in order to improve its scratch resistance.

1. A method of making a coated article, the method comprising: depositing a diamond-like carbon (DLC) inclusive coating on a substrate; and buffing the DLC inclusive coating to an extent so that scratch resistance of the coating improves at least 3%. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein said buff
1. A method of making a coated article, the method comprising: depositing a diamond-like carbon (DLC) inclusive coating on a substrate; and buffing the DLC inclusive coating to an extent so that scratch resistance of the coating improves at least 3%. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein said buffing the DLC inclusive coating is performed to an extent so that the scratch resistance of the coating improves at least 5%. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein said buffing the DLC inclusive coating is performed to an extent so that the scratch resistance of the coating improves at least 8%. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein said buffing the DLC inclusive coating is performed to an extent so that the scratch resistance of the coating improves at least 10%. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the coating has an initial contact angle θ of at least about 80 degrees, and an average hardness of at least about 10 GPa. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the coating has a contact angle θ less than or equal to 15 degrees, and an average hardness of at least about 10 GPa. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the coating has a contact angle θ less than or equal to 10 degrees, and an average hardness of at least about 20 GPa. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the coating comprises at least one DLC inclusive layer that has more sp3carbon-carbon bonds than sp2carbon-carbon bonds. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the DLC inclusive layer is the layer which said buffing is performed on. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the DLC inclusive layer has a density of from about 2.4 to 3.4 gm/cm3. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein the DLC inclusive layer has a density of from about 2.7 to 3.0 gm/cm3. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein said buffing is performed using at least one of a denim cloth and a nylon brush. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein the coating further comprises a layer comprising at least one of Ag and NiCr located on the substrate between the substrate and a layer comprising DLC. 14. The method of claim 1, wherein the substrate comprises glass. 15. A method of making a coated article, the method comprising: depositing a diamond-like carbon (DLC) inclusive layer on a substrate; and buffing the DLC inclusive layer so that scratch resistance of the DLC inclusive layer improves. 16. The method of claim 15, wherein said buffing the DLC inclusive layer is performed to an extent so that the scratch resistance of the layer improves at least 5%. 17. The method of claim 15, wherein the DLC inclusive layer has a contact angle θ less than or equal to 10 degrees, and an average hardness of at least about 20 GPa. 18. The method of claim 15, wherein the DLC inclusive layer has more sp3carbon-carbon bonds than sp2carbon-carbon bonds. 19. The method of claim 15, wherein the DLC inclusive layer further includes at least one of H, F, B and Si. 20. The method of claim 15, further comprising providing a multi-layer IR-reflective layer system on the substrate, and wherein the DLC inclusive layer is deposited on the substrate over the IR-reflective layer system. 21. The method of claim 15, further comprising providing a layer comprising one of Ag and NiCr on the substrate, and wherein the DLC inclusive layer is deposited on the substrate over the layer comprising one of Ag and NiCr. 22. The method of claim 15, wherein the substrate comprises glass. 23. The method of claim 15, wherein the DLC inclusive layer is deposited using ion beam deposition. 24. The method of claim 23, wherein the DLC inclusive layer is deposited using at least acetylene (C2H2) gas in an ion beam source or deposition apparatus.
