Tinting Lights

From: Mike Erickson (merickson@cyberus.ca)

(usual disclaimer applies.. not responsible yadayadayada)

Paint: Nite Shades by VHT (about $15.00 Cdn) Available at most aftermarket Tuners.

  1. Remove the Rear Tail Lights (3 nuts on each unit)
  2. Clean and Degrease the units.. ensure to get dirt/wax from inside small letters.
  3. Shake the can of paint WELL
  4. ALWAYS hold the can 14-16 inches from the Lights when spraying
  5. FIRST COAT - Mist the lenses only wait 30 minutes for paint to setup
  6. SECOND/THIRD/FOURTH COAT - Spray paint until entire surface is shiny Be careful not to let can stay in one spot. It will run very easily.
NOTES: Paint is very thin, and will dry darker than it looks. It also runs very easily, so many light coats are better than fewer dark coats.

Paint takes about 30-45 minutes to set up before next coat can be applied.

One can of paint will blacken all tail lights, and both front side markers.
