Does anyone know of a do-it-yourself tint that works on polycarbonate/plexiglass more to the point percys speedglass rear windscreen 94 z28.
I was all set had some rolls of 35% in hand and started reading (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) the back and it said not to use on plexiglass anyone know why? Guys at store are no help at all. Anyone have a reason I should not do it anyways (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) A part of me wants to. The windows are done I just need to blackout front and tint and blackout rear. It would look terrible not being tinted. Tony |

QUOTE (rmackintosh @ Feb 20 2005, 02:41 PM) ...to blacken the "stock areas" of the plexiglass, I went to a hobby store, bought some black model paint in a little can....masked off the inside of the window, and sprayed it black....looks like stock!
