Does that peel off after it dries? I've heard of a spray on tint that peels off because it is latex based or something.

Can you please repost the link, all I get are errors. Also has anyone just tinted the red/orange part on their 2k2-2k3 taillight? I think that would look great especially on a black Max....

no it doesn't peel off, it comes out in a mist, and is never truly a "sheet", thus it cannot peel off..

it isn't thick enough to "flake off" either..

you can get it off with some paint thinner if you want...

one tip: make sure you let them sit overnight, else as soon as you go driving, they will be full of dust..

spray tint

I used the tail light spray tint. It takes precision and a special way to spray for it to come out glossy, but it is doable.
I just tinted the red part of my tails, you can see it on my page.
Good luck
