need tinted Tlights shiny

k so i tinted my all my side reflectors/blinkers/ tailights with spray tint. turned out great i really was satisfied. the only thing is that the taillights didnt come out as shiny as i would have liked. i did a bunch of coats of tint and then i put on 3 or 4 coats of clear. they still seem a little dull to me. does anyone know how i could get them to really shine? maybe wet sand em or something, i dont know.

thanks allot
ben
