Fletcher Group LLC first started back in 1969 as Fletcher Engineering Inc, and marketed under the name EZE-LAP Diamond Products, by founders J L Fletcher and his wife Louise Fletcher. J L Fletcher started out as a salesman for an industrial diamond wheel company and found that there was a need for diamond compounds as he visited his various clients. Most of his clients professed a need for some sort of finishing and fine polishing prior to selling their products.

J L’s background in chemistry and engineering allowed him to dabble in the design and development of a grease base that would hold up and stay in place as the diamonds were allowed to do their work. After months of trial and error he finally came up with a proprietary formula that allowed the diamond compound to maximize its efficiency and produced the highest quality finish needed with minimal effort and cost.

This formula is still the backbone of the Fletcher Diamond Compounds being produced and sold today.
