I got 2 new cans of vht tint spray if anyone wants to use them let me know.

You need to prep the lights OD, clean them and then remove them and take them inside.
Get a heat gun or blow-dryer and spray and dry and continue until you get the shade you want.

Its really easy but its also easy to over-tint them. I heard you can wet-sand them then try again though but i dont know cause that can cause your lights to become hazy and when you respray you wont even see the lights at all lol

it's really hard to get the tail lights in the perfect blacked out look(FD's & dodge stealths) with the usage the night shade spray. i don't suggest doing them by hand and bringing them to a professional for that slick/smooth clean look. shouldn't be more than 100$, they get clearcoated too.

to remove haze you need to wetsand in the process of 1000,1500 & 2000 grits for like 1-2 hours. you can spray after that but then it might not come out good.

3M hand glaze works wonders after that and then waxing the lights seals the deal. taking them to get professionally clearcoated eliminates having to wax them again.
