Nightshades do a tinting spray, used them on my JA lights years ago and they came up schmick. even went for 5 coats and got them really dark... until i got defected and cleared it all off with some metho and elbow grease.

ahhh cool.... i have to check at repco/autobahn if they've got that nightshade stuff. Just want something a bit darker, not so much it attracts any probs from police.

thanks for the info mate.

STOP!!!


ONE coat is all you need, and very lightly at that! I have done a few sets already including my current set and my spare set! If you use it sparingly the lights will tint "Dark" and look like you just bought them new! Any more coats and the Nitshades will clog, go dull and look shithouse! If you follow the advice below, your lights will look tinted, clear and legal! Nobody, and I mean nobody, will know you tinted them!
