i'm currently painting my tail lights..... which is the best way to mask it off with the least amount of bleeding?????

id just remove them...thats what was done when they sprayed my tails

i was really asking what kind of tape/etc.... of course take them out.... but no probs now... i already painted them... it took me about two hours... i'll post a pic or a link....

what kind of tape did you use?

I would venture a guess at "masking" tape. :lol:

but from what I heard, 3M's Tartan tape is good for masking off spray paint. :)

i used regular "cheap" masking tape.... the templates took a while to make... i applied very light coats to black them out which led to no bleeding.... pics soon i promise :thumbsup:

here is the pics i promised..... :thumbsup:

and another one... this tails look really nice at night... i'll get some night pics....

is that the spray tint or opaque black? (I never seen our tails with the tint, so I don't know what they look like)

I like the new tails. Good work.

i used krylon fusion for plastics..... just did these last night.... i'm not sure how long the paint is gonna last exposed to the elements.

Those actually look really good... good job!

i like! good job!

Looks good, but why did you use cheap tape to seal it off? Perhaps I overlooked what you said, but the paint probably wont' last long if you didnt seal it off properly. Also they have adhesive bond, or primer that will help make the paint last long. Did You just use the plastic spray paint. What I would have done is spray the tails with this ahesive spray paint sprays on clear stays clear then do the black spray followed by clear spray paint to seal everything off, and give an extra gloss finish.

Looks great!

looks awesome...i like it better then mine..i have spray on tint..about 3 coats

thnx man :D

i doubt you scuffed the lense up either. should have done that.

i understand that i didn't prep the lenses right.... these are only trial's.... the joy of doing a trial run without prepping the surface is that if you mess-up, the paint will come off much easier than it would if i had prepped it.....
