In aspects, the polishing liquid is supplied at a rate of 20 mL/min or less. In aspects, methods can further include applying a hydrophobic coating to form a coating with an exterior surface of the coated article. A coated article includes a hydrophobic coating with an exterior surface disposed on a first major surface of a substrate. A water contact angle of the exterior surface is about 100° or more. The coated article can exhibit an abraded water contact angle of about 100° or more after being abraded with steel wool for 8000 cycles in the Taber Test.
