From what I understand you can't take Night Shade off. I've heard of wet sanding and adding a gloss clear coat. Maybe someone who has done it will shed some better light.

If it's fairly fresh paint thiner should take it off. If that doesn't laqour thinner will do the trick just be careful to work fast and wipe it off or it will eat the plastic

I did that on my old truck and the taillights never looked the same again with this truck I just wrapped really light window tint on everything, cheap fast and it looks shiny and clean compared to the dull nightshade finish.
