i tried tinting my tails about 5 months ago... i did about 5 light coats of VHT nightshade and than i used a clear coat... this is how they turned out





than, 2 months later they faded and they now look like this.. except i tinted the 3rd and the side reflects.



what could have caused them to fade like that?!??! i dont get it.. i tinted my 3rd break light and my side reflectors and i did NOT use clear coat and the VHT is still on there PERFECTLY. i dont get why the clear coat affected the tail lgihts?? could it ahve been the heat and the sun?? i dont want to do this to the next stang and the same sh*t happens again..

Yeah I just taped it off and used a rubber flimsy ruler and an exacto knife to trim the straight lines and sprayed over it. And yes those are LED reverse bulbs (blue) that I ordered off ebay for like $12 to the previous question.
