I nightshaded my taillights on my 93 Z28 and had no problem. I have done tons of other taillights, (Cobra,F-150,Probe,ect)

I did my 3rd brake light on the Camaro and had no problems at all.

Maybe you didn't clean them enough or they didn't have enough time to warm up.

Here are pics of my Camaro

Dont use lacquer! The stuff sucks period. I used PPG's 620 Clear. Its not the top of the line but its cheap and easy to spray.
