Waxing tail lights ??
So I tintedmy tai lights
But I have a question for anyone who has done this with Spray tint
Ok so I will start from the beging
-I took them off
-used the spray tint 4 coats or so
-then put clear coat on them 6 coats
At this point it was all good but I wanted them super glossy soo
-I wet sanded them, got them nice and smooth Then
-meguirs paint cleaner
-meguirs polish
-meguirs wax
My problem arises here, there looks like there is a film on them ????

you need to strip the headlight of wax and let it sit in the sun for a few days, or heat it up with a hair-drier. New Paint needs to out-gas, if they don't a a film can start appearing under the wax.
