Default tinted tail lights?

i read in here about tinting tail lights by mixing clear and black tint. can anyone be a bit more specific about the mix? is it just normal clear and black tint? how much tint? i dont want them real dark. so i assume you spray light coats to get the result you require?

any help?

You hit the nail on the head. Just add a small amount of tint to the clear, then apply coats as needed. It will give you a lot better finish than the crapped matt black that you get from nightshades(or whatever they call it) here's an example for you
