I want to spray some clear clusters the same as the ones on my last car (pics in garage). I used Foliotec light spray on them but they tended to fade after a while and I had to redo them a couple of times.
Are there any other types/brands worth considering?

depends what colour. if your doing it red, blue, black, green u can just get tint spray. sand down the area with wet and dry sand paper and then spray on top. this way it'll last much longer.
of u can use car paint like M2rv said but bat motorsport did mine and th light doen't come through so i had to change them

Red.
Did you speak to Dave about them not showing light though? This would be my reason for not using car paint!

yes dave said that's the best he could do. it was only one layer or paint and laqure and my cars arden blue so that didn't help. the spray job was class and it lokked really good so i kept the lights for show purposes.
i have standards back on now

What about if you thin the car paint right down, then spray it through a gun instead of out of a tin?
