| Window Tint
If I paint my windows with black body paint but dont use a bast coat behind it, will it give a window tint effect? I want to be able to see a little into the windows.

I have always used 1:1 tint. Go to a local tint shop and get scrap.

If you want to tint with paint, buy tint, or use a candy, or similar color. If you use an opaque color like black, you will have black windows and not be able to see threw them. I personally like pearl blue, or purple for a tint. I make a light pass with a a color like that, and then back it with Patrica window tint. If your not using an airbrush, be carefull and use light coats and let them dry.
