How to cast Clear tail lights PT. 1  

Awesome my hubby will definitely be taking a look at this video later lol Here from BNO live 👍👍

Very informative video but where is its second part?

Dude you're a lifesaver I'm buying a car that is getting old and you can't get tail light lenses in brand new condition for less than 300 bucks a piece and there are no alternatives for less than 1200. Imma run the reproductions and store the OEM parts to keep them nice for the next owner should I ever sell

Watched and liked and that’s pretty cool that u can do wat u do for the car lights real nice good to learn thanx for sharing

You should have fixed the scratches and polished the lens before You put it in the mould! Now, You're casting all the imperfections on the new one!

Beware this type of silicone for requires moisture to cure... IE the mold must be exposed to the air the mold will shrink at least 10 to 15% if you do not cast your other half immediately will find your casting would be too small

Which additives prevent the lights from crumbling under the sun's UV light?

Wow thanks for sharing, but I think that you will get more results making the silicon more "liquid", I don't know anything about molding, but I think that something that evaporate can help to make the silicon more liquid for the time needed to fill all the gaps then dry... Don't know, it's only an idea!

Tips for anybody who wants to try this: pour the silicone glue into a water mixed with dish soap, it wouldn't dry till you pick it up

I see you earlier at the live stream I come to check out your channel I like what I see stay in touch my new friend

it was gonna take a heck of a lot more than 24 hrs to cure that thick amount of that silicone. you're using something that's meant for "air drying" not the 2 part silicone that has a catalyst meant for this type of work. my guess is it never "cured", lights ruined, project was ditched. i'm in the process of doing almost exactly the same thing but for a different car. you can't skim on materials, even as a trial you have to use the right stuff. i'm a model maker by trade so i'm not new to moldmaking though not gonna claim to be an expert either. although i applaud the OP on creativity, effort and willingness to try, this approach was never going to work.

First off... where's the next video to show if it worked or not? And with the silicone tube, maybe CUT the whole end off of the tube [saw it off even] then pump it out in a wad lol [silicone that is].

i never knew what that hole was for. I thought it was to hang it up

Really awesome video! new from farmall like 3 tapped the bell 74

Only time waste

but how well does this hold up to UV light from the sun?

Why even edit and upload something like this if there is no working end result? Like WTF 🤦🏼‍♂️ You just trolling, wasting yours and others time?
