02 NHRA

So I started NiteShading my tail lights yesterday and when I applied the clear it dried grey. I am using a Krylon Fusion clear with a uv protection. Since, I have sanded the clear off and respayed a layer of VHT. I would really like to clear and wet sand for a glass look. Am I just using the wrong clear?

After a few coats of clear it usually starts to look "milky". Just wet sand smooth and polish. Some of the higher end clears (from a paint shop) don't do that as much.

Ok, I got really nervous when it started doing the color change. I'll give that a try and buff the crap out it...and if nothing else I can always take it back down and start over lol.

What 99Zee said. And what you said OP is a good thing about the VHT stuff, you can wet sand it off and start over since it's not like the body of the car or something big and noticable.

well, I ended up buying a differant clear, Dupli-color clear enamel and it turned out pretty good. The Dupli didnt smoke over at all.

Some brand clears dont bond with other brand base coats. Why Clear coat it? VHT night shade is technically clear with a tint of black. I sprayed NHT night shade, wetsand, buff. Looks almost to OEM specs.
