Guest tbutera2112 Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 im the worst spray painter in the history of forever.....and i heard it ends up looking matte instead of glossy after awhile....i know the alternatives, and i just want normal tint...ill leave what i have now before i spray it...mines not too terrible, nobody has noticed without me telling them first...but its enough to bother me http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i82/SaleenSS90/CIMG0318Medium.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starkmaster03 Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Tyler, I'm doing my markers tomorrow with a tint spray if you're interested in joining. I'll have to see that when it's done, I've been considering doing that to mine to go with the red and black theme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2 Sweet Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Mine... http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c295/skoval25/Car%20pics/8-11-08025.jpg http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c295/skoval25/Car%20pics/8-11-08013.jpg These were done using the VHT Nightshades/wetsand/rattle can clear method, and it took a lot of work, but they turned out nice. In most cases I'd recommend taking the tails to a body shop and have them sprayed with a clearcoat/black mix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tbutera2112 Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 is there no tint shops that will do this? like i said...its not bad enough that i would want them sprayed, but if i can have them tinted correctly i would prefer that...i really dislike the idea of spraying them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clifford Automotive Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 There was a thread on this awhile back... If I had about 10 people interested I would do it for a fair price. They would all have to be the same darkness... 25% paint reduced into clear, 3 coats.

Clifford Automotive Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Depends on how many people want to do it...Do you know what paint and clear cost these days?
