I did the spray tint a few weeks ago...you'll need 2 cans of paint 1 can clear coat. you also need to get a buffer, compound, paint cleaner and polish...oh yea dont forget the sand paper and a spray bottle for the wet sanding. Have fun..it will only take a couple hours.

i went to hobby people today they said figure out what kind exactly tint did they use and what type of clear coat.
VHT (as a second option) is that available in any stores or just online?
