Remove it and you'll see why! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michel Neutral Newbie September 10, 2003 Share September 10, 2003 Spraying is usually done externally, if i'm not wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbobrick Neutral Newbie September 10, 2003 Share September 10, 2003 I did the Niteshades spray on the exterior of my T-bird, check out the pics of before and after in this thread http://www.mycarforum.com/forum/gforum.cgi?post=153321 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madarmour Neutral Newbie September 11, 2003 Share September 11, 2003 >>Spraying is usually done externally, if i'm not wrong. I think that's the logical way too. But I think the finish will be matt, unless another layer of clear-coat is sprayed over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Throttleb Neutral Newbie September 11, 2003 Author Share September 11, 2003 Im guessing that it would be a sealed unit just like the front. darn it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madarmour Neutral Newbie September 11, 2003 Share September 11, 2003 Your guess is right! The apperture is just large enough for the bulbs to go through. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Neutral Newbie September 11, 2003 Share September 11, 2003 Matt finishing isn't a bad idea, actually. I understand Niteshade can be 'removed' if sprayed faintly. A clearcoat over it means it's gonna be permanent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madarmour Neutral Newbie September 12, 2003 Share September 12, 2003 I don't like matt finish. Looks 'dirty', if you know what I mean. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
