One of my roommates tried it. I would avoid it. His looked terrible, it turned out blue. It is also very hard to get an even coating with it for some reason.

Different people have had different results. Mine turned out great. the key is to perp the lights really well. If your going to do it buy yourself some wax and grease remover,1500 and 2000 grit sand paper and some clear. Sand them really good first and clean the hell out of them. spray them and after they dry hit them with the 1500 and then spray them again. I would avoid doing more than two coats. hit them with the 1500 again but this time wet sand them and then shoot em with clear. after they dry sand them with the 2000 and sray them again... wet sand with the 2000 and keep doing this till you get the result you like...
