After getting the dull look that the OP had on his tails, I wet sanded with 2000 -> 1500 -> 2000 again and then used a buffing compound such as Meguiars (or anything similar should work fine).
Lights turned out exactly how I wanted and they look much better than when they had the hazy orange peel look/texture. If I had to do it over again, I'd still do it myself as it was a learning experience in taking the back end apart as well as spraying clear coat. There's not too much that can go wrong and worst case you just need to buy new tails if you hate the end result.
