i want a glossy look on my head/tail lights,. Is this a flat black or will it be gloss/shiney look?

it will have a slight gloss, almost more like a satin look.... to properly apply to give the best "OEM" gloss appearance...wetsand the lights with 1000 grit.cleanapply 2,3, or 4 coats of nightshade, depending on the darkness you want.allow 24 hours to curewetsand with 2000 grit to get out imprefectionswashapply 3 to 4 coats of clearallow 24 hours to curewetsand with 3000 gritwashuse a plastic polish and polish until you get a glass like finish...if you follow this and do not rush it, allowing time to cure, you will have a oem glossy finished product...

Will this be ok to tint my headlights with as well?

I would not recommend it for that. Unless you have a spare set of lights in case you don't like the result I wouldn't do it. The spray pattern you get from the can is very spotty and looks nothing like tint. Try spraying a sample before you do your lights and see if it's what you're looking for.

Can I use this on by cars front badge, emblem, for a smoked look?

Ive used this to smoke an emblem. It came out great. The tip has to be clean because any splatter will show up as dark spots, as with any lense tiny spray.

So if i put this on a pair of glasses i will be able to see through them?

Try it on cheap sunglasses, it gives an amber tint to everything, I mow my 5+acres with some safety/welding glasses I halfassed sprayed with it.........actually cuts down those midday sun headaches.Spray real light coats not heavy or it'll splotch and run, paint it on the inside of the shades.
