It causes dimples in the plastic! no pics as of right now, but do NOT use Krylon Plastic fusion!!!. I wish I had jsut saved up for the night shade, it would have been cheaper! now I need new tails (eventualy >_<) so ya, whoevers going to the cobalt meet in socal on sunday, don't make fun of them too much >_<

 

Good lookin' out!! Thanks for the warning.

 

The only way i know of paint having dimples as you say in it; which is cause from either spraying to much on at once or/and using 2 different types of paint and clear for example enamle and laquer just my opinion

 

lol you think I don't know that? the coats I sprayed were thin and even. and no, there was no mixing of paint types.


sorry for the bluntness.

you dont need new tails...jsut wetsand it off. and no it wont ruin the red as its painted inside the lense. i did the same and it turned purple after a few days in the sun.

 

ummm.mmmm

why exactly where you painting your tail lights for in the first place? Nite shades is special paint and transparent. Krylon fusion paint is just regular paint to paint plastic and not supposed to be transparent.

 

paint thinnner will take it off, ive done it numerous times

 

got a specific brand? because I tried paint thinner, and it didn't work >_< and actualy, if you use krylon correctly, it can be thin enough for the light to come through with, you just have to use extremely thin coats. and as for the replacing of the lights, I don't? it didn't hurt the plastic in any way? cause if not great! than I can just strip them and get the real stuff, I will take some pics in the morning.

 

im gonna laugh so hard at the meet! lol jk... its all good i wont laugh at your tails if you dont laugh at my half done interior.

 

lol no worries, my interior will be kinda half done as well

Wow. That's disturbing.

 

which part? the dimples? or the ford in the background?!

 

Holly ****. VHT Nite Shades FTW

 

if it ruined your taiights start with wetsanding them with 320 grit for a long time until the paint starts coming off, then go up to 600 grit, then 800, then 1000, then 1500.

You can fix these headlights if you wanted to and make then look brand new. Remember the spray is just over the plastic so you can wetsand it all down to the plastic again to 1500 then go get the plastic scratched remover kit from autozone that goes on the end of your drill and macquiers plastic remover afterwards and your lights could be brand new again. If you want i would be gladly to take the lights from you.

lol no no no, luckil it isn't the headlights, just the tail lights, i'm just not to familure with sanding n painting plastic, but I shall keep you tip in mind, I appreciate it, thanks ^_^

 

Go to Home Depot and get some laquer thinner. Did the outside of the lights in it and it will take the stuff off.
