This has been on my to do list gotta invest on all the start up materials/tools, definitely not cheap to start but I appreciate this video. You guys are the best!
Hello sir. May I know what kind of Resin do you use? I am confused what kind resin to use. Is there any different between Polyester Resin and Polyurethane Resin? Thank you in advance.
good tutorial, normally you want to preheat the mold in the oven before putting it into the pressure pot to have a more even temperature across the thinner areas of the mold, I'm curious if you had tried that at all? clearly your current process with working just fine though.
We preheat all our molds - there's simply too much stuff to go over and we just forgot to mention it this time around. If this video does well enough we'll go back and touch on all the small details we missed.
I am making mine for my actual project, I know they existed for my car but sadly didn't produce them anymore, used ones are really rare and expensive, so this is the only thing I can do for my car
RIP, I need new lenses for my 85 RX7 since mine are cracked and I can't find any donors within a reasonable price. How bad/difficult would it be to cast one with a small crack and try to repair said crack and make a new mold from that 💀
i dont know if you will respond, but im curious if you would take commisions? or just help me find the best looking custom tail light design for my car
Hey brother, I’m looking for some cool clear Kustom head and taillight for a full size 2001 dodge van, if you can help, you could have many from the vanner community placing orders
ive been doing it on smaller things,, just silicone aint cheap to make clear lenses.. for all car models..its like 20l for 1 lens required...... or even more
Hypothetically would it be possible to get clear lens made for my car if one were to ship them out to you all and pay? Atm not planning on doing this until car is running but would like to know for future
Is this a how _NOT_ to it tutorial? Vacuum chamber _before_ mixing?!? Pouring in shitloads of bubbles? Putting the new _(hazy and full of defects)_ lens face down on a dirty bench?
"make sure you wear gloves, because fiberglass" ....as his mask is hanging off his face lol. fiberglass will permanently scar your lungs. scary stuff to breathe
This was so 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I've wanted to do this for so many cars that never have taillight options for a cars to go clear. Thanks for this.

Glad it was helpful!
Who could you contact to make a silicone mold if you had a tail light that you wanted to get clear lenses for?🤔
Great video! Just make sure the resin that is used contains a UV inhibitor or it will discolor and get brittle over time.
DAMN!...Thats a crazy ass procedure!.....Kinda worth it though!...
Hi, when and how do you take out the acrylic sticks? Also how do you separate the silicone when they are molded together?
Very much appreciate sharing the knowledge. A ton of work goes into these
🤔 wonders if I should make clear LED taillights for my Crossfire. But how do you get past the Canbus error LED lights throw on older cars.
Resistors based off which you need. Usually 3 or 6 ohm in-line.
Or a canbus eliminator wired in the circuit
@@JPCustomsLLC don't know how to do this.
Man, amazing Job, thanks for sharing :-)

Thank you in advance.
how many times can you use the silicone mold?
Really depends on geometry/maintenance. A good one will last ~30-40 pulls
What pressure pots are you guys using?

anyone know about how many runs you can get out of one of the molds? or does the heat degrade them quickly
Would there be a way to do this at home? Or is it impossible?
May I ask you a question? After using it for a long time, will it turn yellow?

Don't worry, in a couple of months UV rays from sun will destroy the resin)

It's not hard, it's just pricey and time consuming 🥲
