I just finished restoring a 1959 Lambretta scooter. All is good except I'm not happy with the brake light lens. I know this may sound crazy but I'm thinking it was molded clear and then painted with a translucent red color... I could be wrong but just my best guess.
As it stands now, it is mostly clear, which is not good for a brake light. See the photos below.
Is there anything (or product) I can do to make it red again? I've thought of trying RIT which is a dye for fabric, but it says it can be used for coloring plastics. Any other ideas or suggestions?
