Need advice for putting VHT Nite Shades on tail lights.

Like the title says, anybody have any pointers for me? Should I lightly sand the lights first? How many coats should I put on? How long between coats? Should I use clearcoat on top, or just leave the paint bare?

Depends how dark you want it -- I put 3 and matt put about 53 - How long between coats? 10secs - after you have all the coats on, it took 20-30mins to dry completely4 - Should I use clearcoat on top, or just leave the paint bare? - clear coat it if you want them to be shinyhere's what amtron did on his and minehttp://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=35965
