You'll have to clear coat it if you want to protect it I put on 3 layers of Niteshades and 2 layers of clear coat

if u put the clear coat on, good luck taking the niteshades off... If you put clear coat, it will be shiny but you arent able to remove the paint afterwards

Nice! I think it looks really good. I plan on doing that to my Maxima next month sometime. Not exactly sure yet but I think I'm gonna do it the DTM way.

i doubt that, you should always be able to remove paint with some chemical or another.

how long did you let your tails dry before you drove around again?

Yeah thats why i didnt clear coat it yet, i might wanna remove it. I'll wait a week or so to see how it looks and then do clear coat. I let it sit overnight cuz i did it in the evening time. Also i might do the break lights too...still thinking about those...

nail polish remover and adhesive remover should take it off but the nail polish will leave some white cloudish marks since its stronger than other products. i tinted mine long ago, on the outside w/ no clear coat. it started to wear off real fast. if ur goin permanent, i suggest tinted from the inside but ofcourse thats more work if ur willin to go for it

niteshades can come off with nail polish remover... but, if you clear coat it you cant remove it.... I drove the next morning so its overnight...looks soo much better tinted than stock in my opinion
