yeah, that vht niteshades is the shiznit. I used it on my 450r headlight. I never thought about putting it on my windscreen. I might do that this weekend. Still have about 3/4 of a can sitting on my shelf.

that's why you use the vht niteshades instead of paint, its just puts a dark tint on it.

i use a clear windshield. I just paint alot so I thought I would do a write up.

The only issue that I have ever had with the VHT NightShades is sometimes it will come out a tad but purplish. Its a hit and miss thing though

Ive seen many people do this and mine is also painted. Looks fine and in most cases sweet.

Thread is a little old but maybe pictures can help someone out.I only use the dupli-color paints because the fan tip really helps with applying the paint evenly.I've painted my clear stock windscreen twice with paint. first time with a blue,second time with a green and black fade. both were painted on the outside.Both times came out great for me.I love to paint.
