What brand of urethane did you use?

I buy pretty much every thing from www.tcpglobal.com
They have good prices and have the custom paints that I use ( House Of Kolor ). The urethane that I used came in a 3 part kit. It had the clear, hardener, and flow enhancer. It is from their Kustom Shop brand of paints. Here is the link. It is the second one down the list. The 2k Super Flow Polyurethane Clear.

Nice dude! I don't know why others don't follow your example. Some paint, careful masking, and buffing.... it looks like new. Save yourself some money by doing t your way, plus with a outer clear coating- your protecting the plastic lens from minor scratches. It's a plus-plus in my book. ------------------

The paint pretty much permanently ends the delamination look....but I took the clear portions and sanded the lenses with 2000 grit paper. Then buffed them out. All the scratches are now gone from the plastic.

Good job that looks very nice
I did the same thing with mine the only difference is that I clear over the whole taillights after unmasking "PONTIAC".
I also sanded the taillamps before spraying the clear, I did not want to have a small edge between the parts I painted black and the parts where it just had clear.
I was very happy with my results.

I used automotive grade paints. I usually always order from a particular vendor because if I buy paint locally, it is triple the price here in the Bay Area. I buy from TCP Global out of San Diego, Ca.[This message has been edited by IMSA GT (edited 02-15-2009).]
