Default How about AUG-204 smoke lens paint?

I've been reading about how JDM VANS smoke lens paint gives very good results, and I've run across another JDM paint that is packaged similarly branded AUG. The only obvious difference to me is 110ml for the VANS and 80ml for the AUG. My guess is it's actually the same paint, but I'm wondering if anyone here has actually used the AUG -- anyone?

I just tried the AUG smoke and it worked just fine. The 80ml can was easily sufficient for three light coats on the rear lenses -- don't know how much more is in the can, but probably enough for at least one to two more coats. Don't know how the end appearance compares to VHT, though I've heard that's darker. By the way, IMO, AUG/VANS requires clearcoat.

My understanding is that the AUG does not require a clear coat. If you use hobby-type smoke; however, you will need to clear coat first and last.

I just used Aug-204, IMO, clear coat is definitely appropriate.
