A couple of years ago I had the paint shop at the industrial design company I worked for mix up some semi-transparent acrylic paint in the correct orange color. It looked good, and stayed on the car for about 3 years, but finally started wearing off again. I finally gave up and just bought new lenses from Rob, after trying the sharpies, trying the stained glass paint, and just about everything else you can think of also. New lenses are expensive, but they are worth it! Make the car look brand new from the back, and if you don't constantly park your car in the sun, they should stay looking nice for a good long time. See everyone in a week, Josh VIN 5102 VIN 15964 and the rest... johnzd81 wrote: >There are "stained glass" paints (for use on plastics) available at >craft stores (i.e. Franks or Jo Ann Fabrics), look for the ones that >are used for sun catchers as they have some UV filtering additives. > >Good luck. >--- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "drdhdmd" <doctorDHD@xxxx> wrote: > > >>Has anyone found a reliable way to restore the orange color of the >>turn signal lens?
