PROFESSIONAL RESULTS WITH VHT NITESHADE PT 2

[@86frs_guy21]

3 years later. I still come back to refresh my mind with this how to!

[@dep7up]

How is the paint holding up after 3 years? Did you have to touch it up or remove and re apply?

[@reyrey312003]

I've done this like 4 times but I still come back to this video everytime...best instructional vht video out there 👍🏻

[@TheBooze13]

the best instructional video i’ve seen on this thanks for the help man

[@BrandonClark563]

brian thank you!

[@taters7359]

Except for the grit of paper

[@TheBooze13]

TATERS 73 lol always some loser like you out there

[@kareemcallum4690]

i guess I'm pretty randomly asking but do anyone know of a good place to stream newly released series online?

[@liamedison3984]

@Kareem Callum Try flixzone. You can find it on google :)

[@V1AbortV2]

Great attention to detail my brother...also cute lil girl! God bless 🤘

[@BrandonClark563]

V1AbortV2 thank you sir!

[@georgecarrillo2001]

Very helpful, I'm going to experiment on the Covid face shields we have to wear at work.

[@mxcatkiller]

I just gotta say THANKS bro!! Followed step by step, and my lights turned out fantastic! By far the “best how” nightshade video on YT! I actually done it at first without watching anything, and wasn’t happy. I searched a few different vids. Finally founds yours, very very happy and appreciative! 👌🏻🤙🏻

[@joevarvaro9140]

i followed your instructions and painted the tails on my 2012 altima. i used red vht instead of black, and meguilars compound and polish. also i had to manually buff in the compound and polish. even with those changes, the lights look AWESOME. thank you for describing the process. i followed your steps and they came out perfect. anyone looking to paint their tails just follow this guide and youll be successful. thanks again for making this.

[@malunguinho]

Well done, good explanations and visuals on why sanding gives that extra smooth finish. A light touch sanding just makes the compounding/polishing portion only needing a light touch also, less risky for burning through. Really great video, thank you!

[@JRG_11]

If only every how to youtube video could be this specific and instructional!

[@lastresort252]

What a GREAT video!!!! I had seen this already, but thinking I got mine too black, I decided to see if I could remove the clearcoat, then the VHT with brake fluid. I started by sanding the clearcoat with 600 wet, but wasn't getting very far. Then I looked at it and saw the "orange peel" affect, and realized I had just completed the 1st step of this video, so I changed course and sanded 2000 wet, then proceeded with the rest from here, and WOW, they don't look so black anymore and I managed the same reflection as you did! THANKS again for the method and instruction!!!

[@Brandon68plus1]

Thanks for both videos I’ve watched multiple times based on how nice they look on your thumbnail pic. I just did mine following your instructions. I thought I messed up they just weren’t glossy enough turns out I just didn’t compound enough. I went back & compounded two more times & then polished they came out almost perfect.

[@johnmaldonado4488]

Specific to the tee. The best video on how to paint any vehicle taillights. And the outcome was incredible. Thank you

[@MMkail820]

Hands down best video I’ve seen on this, perfection

[@BrandonClark563]

Thanks so much! I appreciate that!

[@danieladams311]

Absolute legend mate, best video by a million miles, good effort!

[@BrandonClark563]

Daniel Adams much appreciated! Thank you!!

[@anthonycaldi7056]

Dude..Well Done! Wasn’t sure how it was going to turnout. Glad I watched part 2!

[@BrandonClark563]

anthony caldi thanks!

[@carlospelaez4101]

Followed this extremely well explained video and my 16 Lexus IS 350 tail lights turned out beautiful!!! The mirror super smooth finish it’s amazing!!! Thx again brotha!!!

[@ThatOneChannelinAZ]

Another great way to make them glass is metal polish (Wheel) rub it on and buff with a sponge or rag. Makes it glass than wax it and its amazing.

[@DROPTINE]

Yours came out great, but I have watched a guy that does it for a living for more than 10 years and I have never seen him sand anything and it comes out PERFECT No orange peel look.

[@johnburden9109]

the orange peel is there. No way to avoid it. Might not show up on video, but it's there. Even if it's not, it will look BETTER wet sanded and compounded and polished.

[@waynekroeker9992]

Best vid by far on how to apply and have it turn out perfect. Sounds like you got a awesome family bro! God bless!

[@Aman-rp7yj]

Good vid for achieving great results. Worked great on my truck as well.

[@chrispenny7599]

Awesome work, the best detailed video by far! Proof that taking your time and doing it correctly will give you the best results, hard work pays off!

[@ozkrpalminteri9431]

Yep, the clear coat is a must. Otherwise the vht tint fades in a couple of months

[@brucebakker7179]

Great to see a video on how to do this right, applying clear coat now, turning out great!

[@EK-ir6uv]

Thanks for the video man. I was kicking myself in the foot after doing the initial spray and clear but it’s turning out great with the information you provided!

[@adamlolley1836]

Man what an awesome video. I did my lights exactly like you said and wow they turned out amazing. Funny story just like you after I got the final coat of clear on I had to put my lights back on before they were totally dry. But I did the final sand and stuff and you would never know. Thanks man

[@biohazardshrimp]

I followed these instructions to the letter. My taillights look amazing

[@petrezw2349]

Hi great instructions many thanks for the upload, why do you use enamel over normal laquer is there any issues using normal laqure .

[@Paul-bf7nj]

Brandon…Great how to video. I was deciding weather to wrap my lights or do as you did. My Ford has very difficult lights to wrap so I am going to use your method. BTW… Go Cyclones! Class of 80 Thanks again for an excellent video. PC.

[@fernycervantez7248]

Great video bro! I made my lights like this today and I sprayed 5 times the black spray and it was really dark lol I couldn’t see much of the light but a red dot lol so i had to re done everything all over and I only sprayed it 3 times and they came out great! But thanks for your help brother. You got a sub

[@BrandonClark563]

Thank you! Yeah number of coats is always personal preference or how heavy the coat going on is lol glad you got them to where you like them!

[@donaldtate3372]

Audience, we all know you have skills man. Great Job✌.

[@Borderline_Contemptuous1]

What's wrong with using a lacquer clear coat?

[@l.g.3775]

A lot of that orange peel/extra work was from the way you sprayed both products. Too far away, and too close in proximity to each other (overspray). But good effort for the end result, they look awesome.

[@jaxluger7161]

Thanks again for the tutorial. Did it to my tail light on my Vespa and it turned out awesome!!

[@josevasquez7784]

Brother, that came out extremely excellent

[@bmorelikemike6514]

Hey Brandon great video man.....quick question after you used the compound...what brand of polish did you use???

[@fallenone6]

Great video. Learned alot. If i sand the clear coat like u did in the video and put on wax, in time will the compound/wax come off and retun the clear coat to a dull finish like it was when you sanded it?

[@MrAzza1479]

Loved the video,loved the truck,did not love the cubs shirt! Go Royals 😆😆😆

[@wtfbeto1188]

LOOKS LIKE A REALLY GOOD TINT JOB.. THANKS I'LL BE DOING THE SAME TO MY TAIL-LIGHTS..

[@noblemav]

Not a bad job at all “mate” I plan to do my Hyundai Kona N, so I probably went over your video about 6 times, just to make sure I get everything down pat…. Thanks Champ..👍😉👊🏻

[@johnhays7871]

Going through this with you now step by step. You make it look Easy, I have a 2019 Silverado and those tail lights man.... lot of angles lol

[@Archangel-0923]

I know this is old but to anyone doing this…..Wet out your tint coats after the tack coat and it will reduce orange peel. Don’t wet sand the tint. spray a couple clear coats and then wet sand the clear followed by a final wet coat. This way you eliminate any risk of burning through the tint layers.

[@GaragemdoCaio]

Hello, great video, just one question. Why does it need to be enamel clear coat? Thanks

[@1jonnyboy4]

You did amazing with this dude! Greatly appreciate you!

[@jamesunderwood9100]

Professional quality Sir!!! Gonna try on my Civic and Frontier soon!!! Thank you!!!

[@kirkleaman6863]

Super nice job buddy!👌🏻

[@rey1164]

Great video, good information, theres different ways and methods to do this but this is a great beginner to intermediate way to get it done. Thank you sir for the video

[@Dmac6969]

I did 4 good coats of the high gloss clear coat. Wet sanded to get a haze, but when I did the compound cream, I never got the gloss back

[@patmenard4928]

Whats the difference between laquer and enamel? I bought enamel but i havent used it

[@louie4316]

Excellent informative video, thanks for sharing. I'll be following your steps to a "T".

[@BrandonClark563]

Thank you! Hope it worked well for you!

[@GEO3535]

You took all the steps necessary awesome video thanks

[@CPMest81]

Cool video man, great result 👍

[@jimbz20]

What would be the reasoning for not using acrylic and making sure to use enamel clear coat?

[@Wolfnx]

I was at six minutes and I was really doubting the process but boy was I wrong, that came out so solid. I am about to pick up an Evo 8 and wanted to look into alternatives to $200 tail lights, which wax sealer did you go with?

[@BrandonClark563]

Thanks! I just used chemical guys butter wet wax but any wax will work

[@05hemiram71]

Great work bub, getting ready to do mine when it warms up Thanks for the tips!

[@taters7359]

Looks good bro . I knew mine probably need some clear on it little bumpy appreciate the clip

[@Dirtymax2007]

Awesome video!! Can the same process be done to the headlights??

[@slownlow210]

Wich Grid Sand paper?

[@Jaico2024trd]

Looks really good!! Question, is the clear coat necessary?

[@kirkleaman6863]

So the trick with the vht nightshade is light coats what’s the recoat window time between coats how many coats were your lights

[@rolosnismoz34]

Hey man what wax did you use to seal it on the very end when everything was finished? The brand as well please

[@BrandonClark563]

Rolando Ruiz honestly it was some stuff I picked up on sale lol I’m not even sure what it was

[@speakebreathe]

@@BrandonClark563 like glass polish? or what would you buy

[@BrandonClark563]

@@speakebreathe its meguiars polish. car polish

[@mrdeanv4414]

Very nice job and very informative..! What brand of clear coat did you use?

[@Turnerbenjamin82]

Best video ever! Thank you, they turned out great!

[@BrandonClark563]

Ben Turner thank you that means a lot!

[@nevrlow]

The baby got the sound effects for the video 😁

[@mnopx3]

Great job! Cute kid! I'll let you know how it turns out.

[@kcampbell4098]

add a porter cable 7424xp to your tool selection. the polished acrylic would have already wafting for wax. You need one for your cars anyway if you like them to look sharp End product shows that you aint finished, more rubbing, say it....rubbing oB oB

[@christph3118]

Are we dreaming??

[@Bwilson2016]

The song is Dreamers by Glude

[@dastylee]

Thanks for a wonderful video how is it now? Did you have to redo it again after one year?

[@johnnyVGtran]

great job brandon i literally just did 6 coats on my tailights and am waiting for them to dry overnight then il wet sand them and follow your steps

[@markk4708]

I did 6 coats on my tail lights too. Waiting now for them to dry overnight as well before wet sanding. How did yours turn out?

[@undedmunky]

Came out great, nice video, thanks! Be sure to let things cure for a month before wax!

[@chadj.w.anderson5473]

Great video, thank you! I do like blacking out things, don't get me wrong, but I've always wondered why people make their taillights (and brake lights) darker and therefore harder to see by other drivers. Isn't the whole idea to be SEEN on the road? So that other drivers know A - you are there, B - you are braking, C - you are turning. I really like my truck, I have done many mods and will continue but I also don't want to be hit from behind (again) because someone couldn't see my dark taillights. I guess I care more about my truck and my body than the cool factor.

[@Johnnymanitoba91]

You can replace your factory bulbs with led marker bulbs that are significantly brighter

[@dirt9016]

In the future if you sand something don't put your hand on the back of the Sandpaper wrap it around a sponge for more even pressure and contact

[@jamesbranner4029]

Good video explained very well each step and looks great! Cute kid by the way

[@Tberg725]

Will drop a like just for showing people how to do this the right way, I cant even tell you how many of my friends have come to me to fix their lights because they did not think it would need sanding... the results will suck if you don't wet sand and buff these

[@1lobochris]

Man that seems like a lot of work but you did so good! 😎 I should just have you do mine LOL

[@djnacho101]

I’m using your video. Thanks bro! Did you wipe them with alcohol between tint and clear coat?

[@glock23gen4]

Good videos man been needing a new KZbinr to watch and I believe I found him and it’s truck vids!! Good details in all your videos man!

[@BrandonClark563]

Andy m thank you so much man!!! Much appreciated!!!

[@glock23gen4]

For sure for Sure iv sat and watched all your posted vids today lol

[@BrandonClark563]

Andy m haha I’m glad you like them!

[@riverdreams]

You rock bruh. Thank you so much. I’ll be trying tail lights and headlights next month in my Audi. Again thanks.

[@BrandonClark563]

Emanuel Vegaaviles thanks! Best of luck!

[@AlexGarcia-xy1lv]

Very nice video thank you what type of clear coat did you use ?

[@schmidty0616]

Just night shaded mine earlier today. Can’t wait to wet sand and clear coat tomorrow.. I should wait 24 hours after I clear coat to sand and polish ?

[@chrishanes641]

Why wouldn’t lacquer work instead of enamel? Just curious

[@MikeSmith-fq5dv]

Is 2000 grit sandpaper all your using to remove orange peel?

[@Psilocy-ben]

Great video thank you for sharing. Do you think 2 coats would be enough for it to be uniform? Or should I do 3 and sand a lot? How easily does the VHT sand off if I put too much? I’m just looking for a very light smoke, don’t want them too dark.

[@civiliancommandosm.u.l.s.a7685]

I'm going to try this. Doesn't look that difficult, just time consuming.

[@user-jv7mf2ce8n]

If I finish following the steps, and I decide I want the tail lights to be darker after the polish, can I just west sand them and go over it with another layer of VHT and clear coat? Or do I need to remove all of it?

[@BERTO929]

Do you have a link to the items you used for cutting and polishing?

[@deryklow3091]

Hey man curious,with both tail lights done with multiple coats,was 1 can more than enough?

[@Imheem90]

Great video! Very good job!

[@michaelc.4565]

Can you apply the clear coat after having sprayed the lights previously?

[@proline_detailin]

I followed each step besides clear coat i couldnt find it, is it ok to leave it without clear coat ? Or if i find it can i spray it on without the sanding part ?

[@mashor7400]

This beautiful product I want them as possible. Thank you

[@donthesheek]

Very nice methodical job............little ones talking at ya pal. 👍

[@ChinosLs]

best one I've seen so far

[@beastgirl43]

Nice job. How’s it holding up?

[@MattG-dk6sx]

Hey man , what did you wipe it down with after you done the vht and before clearing? Thanks

[@RCbashingtheKRATON]

Thanks bro.. I just did mine and there badass

[@BrandonClark563]

RCbashing the KRATON hell Yeah anytime! Glad they turned out for ya!

[@ismoiladkhamov2911]

Professionally done ✅, i had one question which im struggling since this week, so i used VHT on my tail light done uh not bad , but ive covered my bumper all that plastic car parts but still vht spray dripped down, can u please tell how to remove that spray off from paint rear bumper and trunk

[@StansGrandson]

Carby Cleaner removes it with ease

[@mr.j3781]

I have a question , what compound and polish did you use ?

[@justinbarber9597]

I skipped the cutting compound and put the shine on instead by accident. Could I still put the cutting compound on or is it to late?

[@pmaradiaga9073]

Excellent tutorial / results bro. How much total did you spend in product to accomplish this?

[@ryantollefson9730]

I have some turtle wax polishing compound , would that work in the final step? Instead of compounding then polishing? Plan on doing this in a bit so I can go grab them if needed
