Default Canopy Tinting Using Paint

I have tinted canopies in the past use Rit Dye with good results; My newest plane is a Seagull Decathalon; the problem is that the front canopies and side windows are preinstalled; the front canopy can and has been removed so I can paint the interior; the side ones can not or rather they are well installed making it difficult; I have heard of spray painting canopies for tinting, I think this is an option considering the preistallment of the side windows; to have the same results I would like to tint all pieces the same; what paint do you use and how to go about it would be a great help.
