I got stuck with all the headlights (took off the tint and repainted it in color) - Toyota RAV4, 2.4 L, 2009
In short. I had toning on the front and rear lights, but after the lapse of time and the shitty hands of those who muddied me, everything of course went to naught and the film began to swell and climb, I decided to call my friends and ask about painting the headlights while maintaining visibility, I will say the result in front of me was much more amazed than this shitty toning. Report in continuation.

After one day, all the moisture has evaporated, now the headlight is the same as it was without an idin hint of fogging))!
no! it itself will not evaporate! Advice to remove the headlamp, pull out all the bulbs, take a building hair dryer, put it about 100 degrees and dry the headlamp! take a blow gun and blow into the headlight under pressure and check for leaks! Seal any cracks and chips with transparent glass silicone!
P.S. just like that, moisture does not fall into the headlights!
the only question anyone may have come across, after all the painting, WITHOUT DISASSEMBLING THE HEADLIGHTS, they just removed all the headlights from the car and painted them, one headlight fogs up a little from the inside, it feels like it might be, the service said that a little moisture got in when painting that after a couple of days the water will evaporate and everything will be normal. No one knows if this is so? =))
The frontal is tinted! The paint application technology is all the same. skinning apply a layer of paint and a layer of varnish ... by the way the problem with fogging of the headlights is solved. the water evaporated more of such a problem was not observed! and what kind of paint is used honestly not!
And what is the technology of applying paint? And what kind of paint is used? And the windshield is tinted or just mirrors in the photo?
the film gave some dullness to the headlights and here the paint varnish everything clearly feels like the inside of the headlight is painted dark only the lens is not affected))
then we wait, with high-quality photos! :) The machine is cute. I'm not signed by her. I'll take my word for it, which is cute! :)
No, you are a little mistaken, there are no problems with the light, with fogging of the headlights! One question I understand is temporary. and the look of the car becomes completely different + all in front of black and bright eyes IMHO not for me even if everything is strict and in tone, the quality of the pictures can not be very good, but in real life it looks great.
And what for this toning is necessary? Beauty is questionable. And problems in the form of fogging of headlights and their light transmittance dofiga. The machine is already pretty.
I just applied that type of such a film, but you can see without a soul, as they say, so it came off the headlight ((
Yes, it turned out great. By the way, there is a special film - the effect is the same.

here is an example. Oracal light-transmitting film, which chews in different colors)
As for the curves of the hands, it is rightly said, the film lags behind over time, and the painting keeps well and renew if that is not a problem.
If you like it, then it's super :)
I myself am an opponent of such features ...
Everything is clear with the taillights, but what is tinted at the front ones? Glass?
as for me it was possible to paint over the headlights from the inside ... it would finally be ATAS)))))
=) not already painted =)! the film tore off decided to apply the paint longer spectacularly. and more reliable!
hmmm. ... back. ... ... dangerous. ...
but in general, if you decide, then post the report :))
Well, let everyone think so)))))
I wanted to disassemble them, but I was afraid you never know how they will assemble them!
The front ones look cool, but I'm still a supporter of painting from the inside :-) And the taillights turned out to be VERRY ICE! I haven't read the stones yet, I thought they were being taken apart and painted :)
oh, I really like
only my raf is gray (((and I don’t know ... probably such severity will not suit him at all) would be black, would do so!)) 100%)))
