Uhhh... I don't think that'd be your best bet as Plastidip is a "cover" of sorts. I'd nightshade or buy aftermarket smoked if that is what you are going for.

Just wondering read someone did theirs but wasn't able to read it all the way. Seemed like it was possible or a cheap way to see if you liked the nightshade look.

Dont care for the flat black look of the plastidip. Nightshades looks better IMO.
