Taillight Refresh


Recommended Posts

Recently refreshed my front turn signals and running lights. This Krylon Stained paint is a nice little refresh kit in a can.

Just a dusty pair of spare tail lights I have laying. They have chips/cracks so I figure if it's a fail then not a huge loss.

 

Started out with a dish soap and scotchbrite pad wash and scrub. Taped off the reverse lense and its ready for some stained paint.

This is after just one coat of paint

After the 2nd coat of paint you can really see the color changing on the painters tape.

This was the 3rd coat of paint. Compared to the other light from this set it's a remarkable difference.

Can of paint was $19 on amaAmazon.

 

My plan now is to let this cure overnight and then I'm going to tape off the lenses and add some black paint to the borders for that factory black trim look.
