Looks like tons of sanding was what they needed. This is my first time doing a "real" paint job, so I thought a quick wet sanding with 2000 grit then buffing them with rubbing compound would get them smooth and reflective. In reality each light required an hour of wet sanding plus another hour of buffing with rubbing compound, polish, then wax. There's still some sanding marks, but you can't see them unless you're up close and looking at them in the right light from the right angle. This probably would have been much faster/easier if I had an electric sander and/or buffer...
