just spray a flat clear over the tint paint before it completely dries so when it cures they bond together.... if you know what im trying to say

or you could wait till they completely dry and then do a light wet sand job and then spray them with the flat clear

I wanted to use VHT but the AZ in Delaware didn't have it... I'll probably end up wet sanding the tail lights and slapping some high gloss clear on them eventually.
