Tailight Paint

So ive heard, then seen the results of taillight spray paint (they called it nightshade). The place that used to have it has discontinued it. Anyone know where to get it?

I got it from my local Nissan dealer.
But I'll never use it again. It was probably pilot error mixed with bad weather conditions for painting, but my results sucked. Luckily I tried it on the side repeaters first. Those are cheaper to replace than tail lights. Oracle vinyl at a couple of bucks a yard FTW.
