    Default Removing VHT nightshades

    I smoked my tail Lights on my tahoe and I sprayed them a littel too dark. Does anyone know any thing that would take it off? I have already tried to use paint thinner and had no luck. Any ideas?

    you might try some 1500 or 2000 grit wet (soak the paper overnight) then machine polish just dont get rough with the sand paper and only sand in one direction never in circles.

    I've heard tell that you can use headlight polish to remove it, but I haven't tried it myself.

    sand em down, maybe with a 400 grit, and make your way up to 1500 and 2000 wetsanding, and maybe you can hit it with a plastic polish.
