thanks, ill pass by 2night and see if i could spot it, and for WET sanding its 1000grit correct

besides this i want to get a buffing mech. which one would you suggest dewalt? and the compounds from 3m right, i seen body shops using that, you use 2 diff compounds by 3m with a fluffy pad right to resotre it back to normall?

sorry i dont know any of the names of the buffing stuff lol but yea sorry for going off topic

 

im not sure what buffing mech to use.. i use my DA sander on low speed with a buffing pad. not sure the brand or the compounds either. just what we have at the shop to polish painted fiberglass pieces.

 

nice thanks for all the help guys, i think i asked every possible question related to this tinting job lol so i think ima just buy the vht night shade and just paint the dam headlights / tail lights lol

thanks everyone, if you guys want to bring anything please do so but hopefully my next post will be the pics of the be4 and after pic

 

okay i did them lol i think i sprayed a little too much since i did 3 coats, (how many coats do you guys spray ??)

this is re results, still gota take 1 pic in the day light to show the day effect

Before with old tint (crappy) job






When i toke them off







After





what do you guys think?? did i do a good job a crappy 1, this is a close up of the lense them self with the tint spray/ clear coat, i think i just have to sand and buff no?





any comments,did i do a good job?? i could always re-sand and re paint over again

 

whoa those were clear tail lights? lol never seen those and i thonk they came out good i would suggest getting a better bulb for the tails though as the light doesnt look like its making it all the way thru...

i also think you should have only tinted the botom row but thats just me

 

hahahaha yea everyone makes fun of me for having the old old old skoo taillights but i love em lol,yea im thinking of retroing some leds back there,any members here have any led retros ??

 

i thought people would like to see the day time shot =]

 

I'd say you did fine with the coats. And the tails look great

 

Me likey! looks really cool with the blue and black paint

 

thanks everyone, my next project is to paint the headlights, i was thinking of tinting the headlights but i thought why not match the headlights with the car

so im gona paint the headlight housings glossy black and where the projectors go, im going to add a blue ring to it,

i found a blue that almost match's my exterior paint colors so i'll be good to go, plus i can then truly say that no one has my headlights lol since i painted them myself, its kinda good when you know how to do stuff on your own lol

what do you guys think??
