red out question
I just received my red out tape to put over the amber portion of my is 250 tail lights. It wasnt all what I expected though. The tape is as big as the amber portion, not the whole section of the tail light itself. is this what everyone else has used for their tail lights when applying red outs? I am just concerned that there will be a crease on the tail light itself where the red out meets the tail light casing.
also, it didnt come with a squeegie, where can i pick one up? what tools do i need?
Thanks guys/girls.

i don't buy pre-cut....i juse buy a 24x24 and cut it according to what i need and use exacto knife to carve out the excess after slapping on the red vinyl...and i don't even use soapy water since it's such a small area
credit card doesn't work too well unless u wrap it with a mf towel...just went to local shop get a tinting squeegee for $10

Just take your time and make sure you get ALL the bubbles out. Apply the soupy water on the tail light and vinyl. Also, clean the tail lights to the best of your abilities. Good luck!

Yeah, I have been washing it myself. It's such a pain in the *** because my car is black. If I miss anything, it really shows up. Sometimes I feel quite lazy, and just run it through those "touchless" car washes. Hence my question about the car wash.
