Stretchable sheet tint?
Never seen it there. Not saying Lowes does't have it, I may just be looking in the wrong area(s).

well not "easily" stretchable. Just non-metallic. very small display in the "window treatment" section.

It will be fine. Just lightly scuff the surface. Don't worry too much about it.

I would not do 320 grit. you will see the scratches made from that grit through the nightshades. I usually use about 600 to get them smooth and get the barcode off them. Then follow up with nightshades 3-4 coats. Let dry and buff. Clear really isnt needed if you know how to buff them.

a set i did for Shadowguy, they look alot darker in person.

i woud stick with tom's recommendation of using 600 grit paper. 320 will leave some lines.

Best I can do. Lights off.


Lights on. Sorry it was dusk so its harder to see. Also the lights on the elky are on and it doesnt have NiteShades so you can compare the two.

I learned the hard way. After getting a shyte-load of runs the first application, I tried to wetsand then buff them. The VHT stuff doesn't like to be wetsanded OR buffed! It can be done, it just doesn't like it. I stripped all of it off using Lacquer Thinner and started all over again.

It's listed, just do some reading.

Not sure if you've read this, but it may help with some other questions you may have. It's for niteshading tail lights, but can be applied to turn signals and marker lights.
