will a paint remover work on the tail lights without ****** them up? basically i want to take the paint off of the white reverse lights, and leave the rest of the light tinted... jw if the paint remover will completly work...like if u even wanted to start over , to re paint the lights

 

Brake Fluid, just dont leave it on there for to long. Then use some cleaner to clean it off.

 

oh 4 real? better than paint remover

 

I dont know about paint remover. Could work. Just that was the advice I got for paint remover off of tail lights.

 

someone told me vasoline, I dont know if it would work or not but thats what they said, I dont know why they would lie, you know?

if it would work, I think it would be easier then brake fluid, because you can control where it goes, just my thought.

 

You dont pour the brake fluid on the tails. hahahahaha. You dampen the cloth with brake fluid. Durr.

You're not bathing the tail lights, just removing the paint.

 

vasoline isnt going to remove ****, wow you lost your speaking rights

 

lmao, i think that is sig worthy....

 

lacquer thinner takes paint off pretty well.

 

you're better of removing all the paint from the tails and then masking off the reverse lights and repainting them,

it'l make a cleaner finished product

 

Try buffing it off

 

i would not suggest using paint thinner. it will melt the plastic.

 

If you read the first post, thats not what he is trying to do. He is leaving everything the same but wants to take off the paint on his reverse lights and leave everything the same.

 

paint thinner and or paint stripper (same?) will most likely ruin your lights.. just my 2 cents though.

 

I like the sound of paint stripper

 

lmao i see it didnt take long for someone to notice that..

 

i just cant get over the fact that this dude said that vasoline will remove paint! vasoline is for chapped lips or to jerk off with, not to remove paint off my tailights. maybe it willl make them look greasy thats about it

 

Im not trying to argue with you, so dont take any offense from this, but...

I think he said that "someone" told him that it would work and that he "was wondering if it would work".

So he never stated that it will for a fact remove it.

 

lol okay still funny though

 

Indeed it is...

 

ok so im wondering, if i basically use paint remover or whatever on the tails, will it remove the paint cleanly, so i can Repaint them the way i want ...

 

well I just removed all the tint off my tail lights and very easily too. but the way you just freaking bashed me for giving you advice for what SOMEONE TOLD me, why the heck should I even try to help you. Sorry for TRYING to help you out, as the other kid stated, as I did too, I said I didnt know if it work. Its just what I heard. But thats alright, you're smart. That's why you're asking how to do it, right?

I used Sherwin Williams Reducer No. 15
R7 K 15.

have fun, dont do it indoors, you'll knock yourself out.

and btw, brake fluid didnt workk for me, so I guess that gives me the right to make fun of you guys?
Maybe brake cleaner would be better.

- and thanks wardzach for at least sticking up for me a little bit.

 

haha no sorry for bashing you, i just thought it was funny that u sed that. but my faault .

 

paint thinner is what i used

 

paint thinner works wonders
