 You need a rotary on them.. shame you are so far away or id do it for you

may aswell give T cut a go or a compound if you have any ?? before you go to the bodyshop

Tcut is rubbish take them to a bodyshop and ask them to polish them if you don't have a decent compound.. Also how many coats of lacquer you give them ??

Proper original T-Cut is the best on cellulose spray cans. Flat the runs out with 1500 and a hard T-Cut. As Kells said, rotary is best. I laquered my rear light poorly just to experiment. Was two coats, cloudy job, rotary and T-Cut and it looks clear as you like!
