Tail Light Tinting....

After receiving my can of “Night Shades” for tail light tinting, NOT for window tinting, I picked up a can of Dupli-Color Clear Coat and some 320 grit wet/dry sand paper. I removed the lights (remember the wing nut incident previously) and started sanding to take the gloss off. When I felt they were ready, I wiped them down and put 3 thin coats of tint on both, trying to keep them as equal in color as possible. I let them dry for about 2 hours, then lightly sanded them with a 1000 grit screen pad. Wiped them off again and put 2 flash coats of clear, waiting 20-30 minutes in between, then 2 medium coats and watched the flow of the clear. They sat over night before I put them back on. In the pic’s you can see that they aren’t totally black, you can still see the red reflectors and the chrome housing.
Total time, 2.5 hours, then cured over night.
