- Thank you for checking out my video. This is the process that I used to color match and tint my tail lights. If you have the equipment, do it right the first time. No products were purchased for this project. All material was left over from other things.
Looks AWESOME! I can't wait to do mine.
It is not hard at all.
WOW!!! LOOKS AMAZING!!!
Thank you. It turned out really well!!
Wow. 😯 They came out great!
Thank you! I learned a lot and decided to share
Those came out 🔥
YES SIR! LOVE EM!!
Looks so good
Thanks
Solid job man, nice truck
Thanks 👍
Great Job!
Thank you. They came out great!
Damn man that looks sick. Well done!
Thank you. I’m glad you approve. Hope that this is able to help you in future projects.
Wow that looks nice I'm gonna have to try that on my 2019!
DO IT!!
Bruhhhh I need these! Great video
Appreciate it!!
This will make my black 18’ f150 platinum look way better
Great job sir
Thank you so much
Fellow WV here! Looks good 👍
heck yea
Looks awesome! Think I’m going to paint the outer like you and then get a tiny shop to black or the lenses. Thank god I’ve finally found a way👍
What ever you do… don’t use the lens tint in a can. In my opinion, it looks like crap in comparison. I have used it before.
@@juicer911 oh yeah absolutely not. We have a few tint shops in town who could do it in vinyl for sure
Dang bro, that looks amazing!! Way better than VHT.
I think so too!!
They look great if you ask me
That is exactly what I am thinking
nice!!!
Thanks!
2 things that may help u. First u can sand with as high as 800 but 1000 is good too. 1500 is a bit too slick u may have chipping issues. Also the adhesion promoter is great onnplastics but not great for head lights and tail lights cuz its genrally not crystal clear. And not really needed
Thank you man. This is the kind of feedback that I need. With any lights that I do in the future, I’m going to test this out.
That looks great bro! How has this held up over time??
It has held up great! This is the way to do it!
Looks fantastic, Does this pass inspections?
Yes! No problems so far.
Can you post links for the tint mixture. Also could it be used on the headlights.
There is no line to the tint mixture. I mixed it myself as stated in the video. I don’t recommend tinting headlights, but I assume it would work the same. Just reduce output.
Does spraying the tail lights mess with the blind spot detectors integrated in the tail light?
So my tail lights do not have BLISS. However, I know others who have done this mod with BLISS, and they have had no issue. I would say do what’s your own risk. But the people I know who have done it, have had no issue.
@@juicer911 thanks I appreciate it
How long did you wait before unmasking the lights? How has the durability been on them any issues?
I literally started unmasking my light right after paint. I removed it while the paint was still tacky. I did not want it to start curing over the seams. No issues whatsoever!
Does the bliss still work through the tint ?
I do not have bliss. The tail lights are bliss capable though. I cannot personally say that it does work, but according to others who have done the same mod, they claim it does not negatively affect the bliss system at all.
what are the name of paints did you use?
The paint was tuxedo black. You can get it from eBay or any auto paint supply that can match the color. The Clear was U-pol.
Did the tint affect your BLIS system?
I don’t have BLIS. But some of my other friends have tinted their tail lights with no problems whatsoever. Using the same method in the video
Kenneth Toney I gave it a shot, no issues whatsoever and they look great!
Dude where are you from?!? Come do mine 😂
haha!
Where can I buy the blank paint
Try eBay, Amazon. Anywhere that will sell black ready to spray paint.
@@juicer911 thank you
If you have never heard of isocyanates you might want to look it up. Your gonna destroy your lungs spraying 2k clear with no respirator in a garage-type space. You did awesome work and the lights look great but you can not enjoy much if you have trouble breathing a couple years down the road.
Thanks for the support. I do have a respirator but made the bad call not to use it. I have been getting better at it. Thanks for the advice.
something i try to do is position whatever i want to spray as close to its installed postion as possible..... like in this case theyd be upright mabbee chest level-ish (again personal preferance) .... also with the relatively cheap LED shop
light options i also light my work area with an excessive number of walmart LED shop lights i mounted on car rim/pipe portable stands that can and do when used with plastic sheeting from same walmart as lights they become a makeshift spray booth keeping overspray and fumes from stinkin up your wifes kitchen and causing a feller to eat cold hotdogs a day er three
Thank you for the pointers. I’m definitely going to use some of those.
@@juicer911 yvw sir we all learn more from each other as well as mistakes than any book can possibly teach us..... bein raised with a family that said: "the only stupid question is the one you did not ask"
and another one that applies to you specifically sir would be: "built not bought"..... why? if ya have to ask jus keep yer fat checkbook handy you wont understand the explanation lol have a great day everyone..... from Arkansas USA
@@porschetech72901 heck yea!!
