Im wanting to attempt mine myself, I'd be using VHT nite-shades.
I don't want it "blacked out" or trouble from the police. I want it to look red with a slight smoke. I assume 2 or 3 light coats?
Did you guys scuff the surface before applying the smoke to ensure adhesion with some 600 maybe?
Does VHT need clear coat over the top of it to keep its gloss? If so, what brand clear? (duplicolor clear coat blows, its way too soft and doesn't last I'm not using that).
Any pics with light smoke would be appreciated as well. Thanks.
