Nite Shades - 3rd brake light! (pics)
 

So on the weekend I went to work on my 3rd brake light and got it all "Nite shaded".

I did two light coats of NS and two coats of clear.

Wet sanded the lense. (used a bit of dish soap on the sanding paper, works good.)
cleaned with paint thinner, Applied two coats of NS, then 2 coats of Clear. then lightly wet sanded again with a bit of dish soap. apply polish and buff the thing. and your done.

Pics!

May I ask what "nightshade" even is? Is it some sort of paint? And what are it's applications...meaning what is it meant for, and/or what are people using it for? Thanks
