I half smoked the tails on the Golf today. I wanted to do this before the Euro Show but, that didn't happen.
Here are the pics

The process for those who are interested.
1. Clean and remove lights from vehicle.
2. Wet sand area to be tinted with 600 grit.
3. Re-clean and mask off area to be tinted.
4. Apply 2 coats of VHT Niteshades (more coats for darker tint) I waited about 20 minutes between coats.
5. Let dry for 20 or so minutes and apply 2 coats of Rustoleum Crystal clear. About 10 minutes between coats.
6. Let dry in the sun for at least an hour.
7. Re-install and post pics. :)

I really like that golf.
