    Spray is crap and leaves a dull finish, the wrap leaves a satin finish what looks better on lights

    I've done it on taillights years ago. Looks awful and hard to remove. Don't do it. Buy laminx or similar. Easy to apply with a hairdryer.

    RE: Spray on tint

    Here an example of the film.

    Left/boot lid light is wrapped
    Right/wing light is not.

    This is the lightest tint. You can get darker if needed but I think this is enough



    The all tinted.

    RE: Spray on tint

    Went out today with the intention of using tint film I had but didn't have enough for pair of rear lights so I have the spray a go on a spare set of corners I had lying around,, what ye make of this? After 3 sprays and a bit of a clean.
    [hr]
    To be honest I wouldn't be a fan of the spray either, looks okay but when I keep looking at it it just seems to be so dead and dull.
