Works awesome. Had some Bumper lights on a Jeep Gladiator. This allowed me to blend the color of the Lights into the Bumper color with the Light still being able to shine through.Advice. Clean Surface and move slowly. Light coats work best and let dry between coats until you get the right color.Sprays easily but would suggest that you clean the tip after each spray.Dries very quickly between coats and final coat is dry within 30 minutes. Once paint drys no finger prints will show up. Seems to be Scratch Resistant and holds up under car washes.

Great stuff covers good the first coat

I have a small, matched set of DAC/AMP for headphones with cases made of mahogany. I wanted to make the cases appear as black, but still see the grain in the wood. The mahogany had a thin clear finish already, so I didn't have to prep it much.To be clear, I wasn't using this product as intended. Still, I had some issues - first, there were areas that ended up cloudy. I don't know what caused this, other than perhaps humidity. Second is that in the end it was too dark. I could have just used black paint. Third, I used nearly the whole can on these small cases. Yes, that would explain the darkness, but I was really just making light coats, trying for even coverage. I've gotten MUCH more coverage from other brands. I sympathize with anyone trying to do the same on a plastic lens.All said, the finish looks good (better than the photo) and it dried HARD. This is important because some paint remains gummy long after application. I'm stacking these units and don't want the upper one leaving footprints in the finish of the lower one. This HAS happened to me before, using a very well-known aerosol paint brand. Overall, the project turned out well.

Some vehicles you can't just buy a set of GTS light covers for. Or you spend 3x what a stock light housing is to buy a custom ones. The VHT lens tint is a cheaper way to get a custom look. There are a few ways of painting your light housings, but I would rather remove the light housings off the vehicle in sted of masking half the car to keep the over spray from getting on your paint. Plus you can get a better even coats of paint when having all the parts in front of you. I did the taillights on my 05 Mercury Grand Marquis, including the lenses on the trunk hood. I first cleaned the lenes with wax and greas remover. Masked off the areas I didn't want the spray tint to be painted on. Gave all the paintable areas a light wet sanding with 600 grit sand paper. Now the lenses have a dull look to them.Now youjust gave something for the spray tint to grab on too. Clean again with wax and greas remover and wipe dry with a clean rag. Look to make sure there is no dust or hair on the parts you are painting. I found 3 light coats of VHT lens tint is more then enough, but if you want darker add a few more. With the parts laid out in front of you and clean, spray light even coats on all parts. Make sure you put the same amount of spray tint on all parts or one part will look darker than the other. Your light housings will look like they have a gloss to them. This tint will dull out to a flat black. If you are looking for a flat look, like your car is a flat black this will work for you. I like the custom look so I bought the VHT SP515 Quick Coat Clear Acrylic Enamel. If you use this clear, when the tint is dry to the touch but not harden give them a light coat of the clear. I did 3 light coats of clear, spraying when the clear was tacky. Let dry over night and put the lenses back on the vehicle. Remember the more coatsof tint, the darker or harder it will be for others to see. Also, check with your town or state. Might have laws against lens tints.

Works great. light coats make all the difference. Always check at night to ensure you didn't over do it.
