Heres my work :) i dont know why people say vht sucks...with the right prep work and time you can get nearly the same results as clear and black for wayyy cheaper...i havent even gave the clear coat a good polish yet and they look good already...


Perfect darkness :) had a pair with less vht decided to go a lil darker...love it

Right side

lights on (not brake lights) in broad day light still real visible for how dark they appear off

very nice.. the more i see it the more im tempted to do it

my tails have bubbling and are fading a bit and what not... would the VHT hide all of that???
 


Ive only used VHT to get the tires to stick to the concrete.


I am letting FLIP do mine, getting honeycomb tints for my 07
 
alright i just posted in the rant forum about my experience with vht. question... i bought a can of clear but when i sprayed the clear it made the vht turn white and foggy looking? did i get the wrong clear or what?
 
not fully cured. the back of the dupli color clear said use within one hour of spraying color. if i did it yesterday, can i clear them today or is it too late? i still will do what you're doin whitedevil and send them off. but temporarily ill just stick with my vht
 


You can clear them at any time after the coating has dried.

I usually let things dry overnight then check them after about 12 hours to be sure that nothing aggitates it. It helps to do a light wetsand between coats too , keeps things smooth and professional looking.
 
damn that looks pretty good.

do you have any left in the can? i bought some tinted tails and just one taillight needs one coat of it. i can paypal you even if its 1/4 can left. let me know

if you used dupli color acrylic enamel clear...i used this in the past it turns foggy white when sprayed on but when it dries it dries clear....bake em in the over for 5 min on 200F and that fogginess should go away..

i got about a 1/4 left but it would make no sense to ship it lol it would cost 5$ to ship and i would want like 3$ thats as good as buying a brand new can for 9$ :th_thumb-up: your better off that way
