Press the tape onto your jeans a couple times to lose some of the tack.

I got them off ebay. I heard complaints about them melting and chipping and stuff, but I haven't had a single problem with mine. I like them because they complement the headlights perfectly

Ok so what kind of paint is everyone using? Are you going with a satin, full gloss or flat? Also are you using krylon fusion? Want to be sure to get the right spray here.

Krylon fusion - Gloss black

That's what I've used 4 times.
