Yea the rust stuff you can even get at walmart. I posted the VHT stuff at advanced cause people have a hard time finding it for some reason lol. Used the nite shades on the jetta. Thinking of redoing it with the rust to see the difference. :D

The real professional way is to mix black paint with clear coat. Comes out glossy everytime and you can see straight through it, but if you dont have access to a paint gun and compressor the Rust-Oleum lens tint is the way to go. Dries way glossier than VHT.

That's exactly what I do.

I see a lot of cars with the "flat black" look on the tail lights, is that from that VHT?

If you do, post a comparison. I'm interested in seeing the difference.

I couldn't find it at advanced, the guy there actually told me there was no such thing and I had to buy their tint.

and I feel like we're(mostly me) jacking this thread hard, OP hasn't replied at all...

It's not like primer flat, its shiny but you can tell its spray painted plastic, if that makes sense.

Start out boxy, shape as you move along.

Yeah, that's the VHT stuff usually.

I know what you mean, but clearcoat(urethane) is a type of plastic too...

I actually didn't know that, unicomp-customizer-black.jpg this is kind of what I meant, minus the bumpy texture, it shines but its not glossy.
