I am considering lightly smoking the clear part of my 850 tails.←They do look dark, but there is still plenty of light showing through. Obviously it's a little bit reduced but still bright enough to be noticable. VHT does state to NOT use more than 3 coats of paint per application, just for that very reason.

UberV70 Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 I was thinkin i wanted to do the same thing, but what i really wanna do is what slater said about "redding" them out. I think if i painted the red part darker and MAYBE did like one coat of the smoke to the white parts that would look really good.Bring that can of paint to the meet and i can just grab it from ya there *edit - k ya i just read ALL of slaters post and i didnt read the part where it says you cant do both - so scratch out tinting the clear part - dont worry about bringin the paint* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slater Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 If anyone's interested I have extra cans of the smoke paint and clearcoat right here...It's $6/can which is what I paid. You'll need 2 cans of tinted paint.Anyone who wants it I'll give free shipping to...- Slater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
