Omer DeSerres

Or any toy shop that has model cars. I bought mine at a toy store at the champlain mall but it may have closed since then... There's also a toy store on the corner of University just south of St-Catherine, they might have.
 
what is it used for anyways. besides painting taillights. i always have the hardest time explaining what its for.

looks like im bringing this stuff back :)
how many coats do u put on?

For scale model car/planes.

Use thin coats until it matches the color of the OEM taillight. Then use 2-3 coats of clearcoat, otherwise it will look a little flat and will fade away with time.
 
just go to rona or home depot and pick up red glass paint it does the same job if not better :bigup:
 
LIGHT coats!!! 20 of them if it's necessary.

when I was dumb and foolish (lol, 2 years ago) I smoked my sidemarkers with a can of nightshade.

2 coats

it was thicks and drippy as hell .lol
 
I used glass-paint made by Excel

Bought it at Rona L'entrepot in st-bruno, something like 6$/can, get more than one because your friends will want some too.
My taillights are only three layers, two outside and one flooding the inside.
