Spray tinted my tail lights and mirror marker lights (pics)
So today I spray tinted my tail lights and mirror marker lights on my F350. Here is what I did. Cleaned them with grease and wax remover twice. Sprayed them with Dupli-Color Adhesion Promoter. Then sprayed them with Rust-Oleum Lens tint. I let them sit about 30 mins and then cleared them with some Nason Clear for longevity. I think that they turned out pretty nice. What do you think?

Looks nice! Do you think it could be applied to the headlights too?

They are clear coat just like car paint job. They will shine better then a regular plastic lens for a long time.
Ok...do you know which stores that sell that spray on tinted clear coat?

Ok. Thanks! Found it! That's way cheaper than buying smoked aftermarket lights.

They turned out great! Where does one get the nason clear? Does it come in a spray can or does it come in a can and has to be sprayed?

Looks awesome! How do the mirror marker lights come out? What's the trick? Thanks in advance.

You push your upper mirror all the way towards the truck and you will see a gray tab that holds in the light. You take a flat screw driver and push the tab and they fall right out.

I knew that you would have that information if anyone did. Thanks. I will be doing them today.
They look great! It's things like this that make me wish I didn't have a two tone King Ranch. Don't think it'll look very good with my White and Pueblo Gold.
