Re: Clear Coat for night shades
depends on what kind of uv resistance you want out of it. any 1K clear will work, but its a good idea to wax it after all the solvents have evaporated. depending on what clear you use that can take 7-30 days.
id suggest wet sanding them yourself with 1000 grit, then take em to a body shop and have them spray it with a good 2K clear. if youre in no hurry have them just spray them with some leftover clear from a paint job and they probably wont charge any more than $5. at least then youre getting something worth while for minimal cost.
if you dont care how long it lasts use the 1K duplicolor or aerosol equivalent. i only do this stuff for a living so take it for what its worth ;)foggy headlights? wetsand... buff... WAX!!!
if nissan motorsports is nismo does that mean honda motorsports is homo?

Re: Clear Coat for night shades
