Automotive grade, can this only be done at a paint shop? Or if you have a gun could say I pick some up?

Wait did someone say you can use window tint on your tail lamps? I thought that wouldn't work or it would just peel off?

What about automotive grade clear rattle can? Or do they make that?! I've never used a gun before but would like to try. How much do they run and where can you find them? A cheap one too!
