night shade

About a year ago I did my tail lights with night shade with no prep work at all and am now wanting to redo them the right way, what kind of prep should I do and should I remove the old tint and if so how should I go about doing that?

Read the directions on the bottle or check the companies website.

That'd be your best bet to be honest

Last time I pretty much took the lights off and sprayed them, a buddy of mine bought too much of it and passed the left overs to me so I just did it on a whim.

take a fine (but not too fine) sanding sponge and wet sand it off. it'll take some elbow grease, but it'll come off. i had to do it to the tails on my explorer. then clean it up with some alcohol and let dry then paint it. let it dry between coats. then when you're finished clear coat it. i'm going to do it to my tails soon as i'm off and it's not raining like a lil bitch out here lol
