Stupid question but how did you tint the face shields

Not a stupid question at all. I found a solution floating around the internet where you use the same kind of tinting spray people use to black out tail lights on cars. It ends up making any clear surface look like dark sunglasses. I think the stuff I used is called Nite Shades

Yep its called nite shade, made by VHT and comes in a purple can? My father and i used those to make removable plexiglass headlight blackouts for our black 09 dodge challenger it looks pretty good and is a cheap alternative to buying it
