Whilst I make an *rse of most things mechanical my painting is usually top notch.. Have done whole cars in the past. Fixed my split bumper and resprayed. It looked perfect for about 2 days. But this morning it looks like below. Would you say its a reaction with the base coat and clear coat?

Moisture by the looks of it. Where did you spray it?

Sprayed in my living room. You can do that when you've got no wife. It was ok until I parked it overnight in the rain. Maybe should have wet sanded/ flattened my base coat before putting clear on. Might redo it with different clear coat paint.

It looks like watermarks, is it under the lacquer? It looks like it.

Lol at spraying in your front room! How was your head lol? Good show.

What a shame. It looks to be mint apart from that.

It might dry out, I'd leave it for a while and see how it looks in a few weeks.

It will disappear. Leave the car out in the sun.

did the clio with can.

Did the triumph with a roller as experiment. but that goes on too lumpy meaning wet sanding inbetween coats and leaving such a thin layer each time I would have to repeat 5 or 6 times so gave up and did final top 2 coats with proper air gun and compressor.
