what do you all think? should i use less coats (used 3)...cause the more i sprayed the more orange it got...

 

yeah, shouldve used less paint

if theyre glass you could remove the paint.

 

haha cool...but do how do they look?

 

same thing happend to me i took paint thinner to mine cuz it was WAY to dark i used two coats and then 3 coats of clear to keep em from chippin

not on

what paint did you use? if its krylon stained glass paint itll fade in a couple weeks or so anyway

 

Are you 100% sure you used yellow?

 

Badass

 

yah used yellow...also used a stone clear coat by accident...so goin to redo...will take pics later

 

why didnt you just use yellow bulbs

 

what brand of paint did you use and WHERE did you buy it?

the whole point of me posting was to find what color did the people use when theirs came out right and not like yours. i don't want mine amber and i know which krylon one you used and even on the can it doesn't look yellow, but a more golden color.
you must have use the one all the way to the left. i want the fogs yellow not amber. oh and btw i found the paint i needed. it the tamiya translucent paint that can be found at

looks fine how it is IMO i wouldnt even bother re-doing it

 

i think it looks bad, redo it.


I saw a "how to" on this, i think the brand it said to use was Testor's (or tester's)

testors is spray enamel...youre probly thinking of the DIY amber dash lighting thread by bauleycivic

...hah, i used stone clear coat by accident too!!!! but i dont really care.. i still left it alone after.. still looks good to me.

 

You can use Aircraft paint remover to take off the paint, it's safe on glass.

It isn't worth painting the lights, I painted mine and it's already starting to chip even with four coats of clear.

 

i like them to leave em

 

Not to steal your post or anything but i plan on doing this but i want mine amber but i was wondering how long the paint will last on the lenses or can i just buy amber lenses? Also what did you use to cut out the area for the fog lights?
