how do i smoke/tint my tail lights?
 

i like the way smoked tail light look and i wana do it to my truck. please help people.

Things you will need

VHT Night Shades Coating ( can pick this up at local parts store )
2000 grit sand paper
Terry cloths
Painter' s tape ( if you choose to do it while they are on the truck )
Scrap newspaper ( if you choose to do it while they are on the truck )
Bucket of soapy water




Step 1
Wash your tail lights thoroughly and concentrate on one light at a time.

Step 2
Mask off all painted surfaces around tail lights with painter's tape and scrap newspaper. (This is one option it may be easier to just remove your taillights if possible.)

I know a few people who have done this with their F-150's and they just took off the tail lights then tinted them on a work bench.

Step 3
Use 2000 grit sand paper to sand the whole tail light. Work on a small area at the time and be sure to be very thorough.

Step 4
Now, grab a can of VHT Nite Shades coating and apply it on one tail light at a time. You should apply it from about 10 inches away.

Step 5
First, apply a very thin coat to each tail light and let it dry.

Step 6
Apply the second coat in the same fashion.

Step 7
By the time you finish, you should apply around 5 coats of paint. You can do more than that, depending on how dark you want your lights to look. The key is to apply coats slowly and uniformly

Hope this helps :)
