First remove your old tail light
and sand them with a high grit wet sand paper, i used 2000
then clean them with alcohol
i decided to cut out star stickers and place them where the reverse light is and where the brake light is
then i laid down 3 coats of black high gloss spray paint and dried them
next i removed the stickers and lightly wet sanded the entire tail light to make the surface smooth.
then i applied ten coats of clear and then very lightly wet sanded the tail light again

Has anyone ever used VHT night shades on there off road lights? It sounds dumb obviously if u used alot cause it would defeat the purpose but I just want a hint of black without ruining my visibility...not sure if 1 coat will give me that look I want without affecting my visibility alot

I used the VHT and one coat gave me the results I wanted, but it has speckles all over it like trash. But its not trash. How do I need to fix this before I clear it?
