I would say try nightshading and then if they start to flake or just look like crap then tent. u can get a can off ebay for less than $25 shipped and even after you spray the windows on your cab you will have some left over and can use it on something else if you want to

Well if niteshade is $25 then he could just get a roll of tint for 10-12 dollars. Sounds like he might already have a can and in that case I'd say try it.

Don't use nightshade on the windows!! What happens if you get pulled over? you can't take it off. Well when it rubs off you could but its not as easy as tint!!

Niteshade is for plastic not glass. Just use real tint.

I was going to try it this morning but ended up sleeping off a hangover but Maybe tommorrow, Im going to try it on a drinking glass first and see how it works. The reason I asked this is because I tried to tint my old thunderbirds windows and it was like an aquarium, I thought I saw a seahorse in the rear view mirror once too. Im just naturally bad at it I guess.

And yea I couldn't use it on my tails because in illinois its illegal to have tinted/smoked tails, and yea they do pull you over for it, especially them black plastic covers if you got those your a prime citizen for getting pulled over.
