Works awesome. Had some Bumper lights on a Jeep Gladiator. This allowed me to blend the color of the Lights into the Bumper color with the Light still being able to shine through.Advice. Clean Surface and move slowly. Light coats work best and let dry between coats until you get the right color.Sprays easily but would suggest that you clean the tip after each spray.Dries very quickly between coats and final coat is dry within 30 minutes. Once paint drys no finger prints will show up. Seems to be Scratch Resistant and holds up under car washes.

Used this red spray paint to bring my faded hummingbird feeders back to life after the dishwasher dulled them. The color is bright, dries fast, and looks fantastic—like new again! I’ve added before and after photos to show the difference. The hummingbirds approve!

took me two tries to get it right because I didn't read enough tutorials. I sprayed by rear and front headlight. 3 of them worked well without any prep outside of alcohol wipe, while the last one was very spotty. Didn't realize later that was because I had previously polished and clear coated it.Sanded everything down again with 600, 1000, then 3000 grit sand paper. Sprayed the tinting product. Sand it again with 3000 grit. Wipe again. Spray 2nd coat. Polish and clear coat.I can still see some orange peeling and unevenness, especially when the light is on. Definitely a more involved process than just spraying a few coats.

excellent

Works great. light coats make all the difference. Always check at night to ensure you didn't over do it.

Some vehicles you can't just buy a set of GTS light covers for. Or you spend 3x what a stock light housing is to buy a custom ones. The VHT lens tint is a cheaper way to get a custom look. There are a few ways of painting your light housings, but I would rather remove the light housings off the vehicle in sted of masking half the car to keep the over spray from getting on your paint. Plus you can get a better even coats of paint when having all the parts in front of you. I did the taillights on my 05 Mercury Grand Marquis, including the lenses on the trunk hood. I first cleaned the lenes with wax and greas remover. Masked off the areas I didn't want the spray tint to be painted on. Gave all the paintable areas a light wet sanding with 600 grit sand paper. Now the lenses have a dull look to them.Now youjust gave something for the spray tint to grab on too. Clean again with wax and greas remover and wipe dry with a clean rag. Look to make sure there is no dust or hair on the parts you are painting. I found 3 light coats of VHT lens tint is more then enough, but if you want darker add a few more. With the parts laid out in front of you and clean, spray light even coats on all parts. Make sure you put the same amount of spray tint on all parts or one part will look darker than the other. Your light housings will look like they have a gloss to them. This tint will dull out to a flat black. If you are looking for a flat look, like your car is a flat black this will work for you. I like the custom look so I bought the VHT SP515 Quick Coat Clear Acrylic Enamel. If you use this clear, when the tint is dry to the touch but not harden give them a light coat of the clear. I did 3 light coats of clear, spraying when the clear was tacky. Let dry over night and put the lenses back on the vehicle. Remember the more coatsof tint, the darker or harder it will be for others to see. Also, check with your town or state. Might have laws against lens tints.

I purchased the VHT NiteShades for the purpose of tinting my brand new clear motorcycle windscreen. It's made of durable plastic of some sort, which I figured is the same as most tail light lenses, so VHT was my first choice. I have never used the VHT products before and only knew of them by brand name. I hung the plastic windshield in my friend's paint/spray booth and began spraying in considerably light coats as instructed by the can's directions since I did not know how dark I wanted the end result to be. I waited about 15-20 minutes between coats and began running into problems by the second coat. There were small circle areas which the spray would not stick to which I thought I would be avoiding by spraying in such light coats. The spray would not stick in some places and left clear bubbles of unpainted area. I attempted to apply a thicker set of coats after I let everything dry for 1 hour, but the small circle spots were not disappearing. I ended up spraying the rear side of the windshield in the areas where the spray would not stick in an effort to get a uniform color, but some areas on the rear of the windshield had the same problems. I managed to get it to a satisfactory point and stopped before I created any more problems. I would not recommend using this on motorcycle windshield because you’ll probably run into the same problem I did with the spray not sticking in some areas. It almost got ruined and I thought the Niteshade would be the perfect item for the task I needed to complete.
