VERY important about window tint - apply VERY light coats and watch carefully - too thick adn it starts to run - it was dark outside and I didnt see how thick it was going on (or rather thin and runny) - I think I just ruined the lid :(
 
Been there, Done that.... Sorry to hear bud... You could always just spray the windows black to hide the runs.. Works like a charm...
 
I don't use a specific "window tint" paint.

Just use black and apply through your airbrush at about 12" very carefully and evenly with quick bursts.....

Save you a few bucks on paint.....
 
That rattle can window tint is a crap shoot at best. It works best of you warm the can first in some warm water. Then spray very very very light coats and allow each coat a lot of drying time. It can also bleed through several layers of paint if you are not careful, so its best to use a sealer if you are going to use that stuff. I would just do what Candyman said, paint em black and you should never see it.
 
Actually, it was Imbroken that said that, NC. How could you sully my good name???

Back on track. I use light coats of Pactra Racing Finishes transparent smoke for tinting. Put it on light and it looks good.
 
Oops, my bad sorry to offend you.

I have tried transparent smoke, thinned down and it did look better than the rattle can puke spray, but it still did not give me the look I wanted.
