Amber lens psint

Post by woodypup59 »

Has anyone recoloured rear indicator lenses with either a spray or brushed paint. ? Any recommendations. ? I see a spray on eBay for £15. Any good ?

Somewhere on here there's a thread about it.

In the case of my car, I just fitted an amber bulb and let the car wear it's patina. (actually I couldn't be bothered to consider painting the lens!)

Thanks all. I bought some Tamiya clear orange at SC models in Stevenage on my way to work.

I'll let you know how it goes.

Here's an after and before picture.
I'm pleased with that.
