Taillight Paint

Hey I was just wondering does that tail light paint stuff really work? If so how bright is the light after it has been painted? (I dont want it to be so dark that my brake lights arent visible.) thanks for any help.

Well that will just depend on u and how dark u want it, 1 coat its usally light and u can still see very clear the tail light. But will not give u that dark nice looking coat. If u interersted they sell tint on ebay just like for the windows and in case u dont like it u can remove it .

Ive heard of that stuff. (I have even been tempted to buy a set from lamin-x) but ive heard they have a habbit of falling off after a while. If thats not actually the case i will probably do that on my headlights. I think i am going to put the tail light paint on all my side markers too. (I just hate how they look)

K so I bought a can of VHT Nite-Shades will just one can be enough to get the three coats on my tails and side markers?

One can was enough to barely do my tails, but I went really dark...if you're gonna do your side markers too, then an additional can is advisable just to be safe. Like alfonso588 said though, it all depends how dark you go. Obviously the darker you go, the more paint you use...
