it looks great, but its just not matching the high shiny glossy parts of my truck like the hood and bumper

If you used just rattle cans to paint and clear it you won't get it to shine that well.

You might be able to buff it and that might help, but not sure what you used.

yeah, like duracolor spray can paint from autozone. and i primed it and put 4 coats of clearcoat. could i wet sand it and then use rubbing compound to make it shinier? that was a suggestion of rfr212 pete
