Transparent Black Paint for lights
I am looking to TINT my lights I don't want to black them out. Really I don't even want to make them too much darker than they are. How would I go about making a light tint paint for them?

It isn't paint, but Lamin-X is an option. They sell all different colors of film. It'll protect the lights from rocks and whatnot at the same time. http://lamin-x.com/

If you have an old light laying around, I would test it out on that first, or maybe grab one from the junkyard.
BTW, when is that satin paintjob going to be done? I'm looking foward to seeing it.
