dimples/fisheyes

[777daystar]

I sprayed clear coat on my project with an HVLP, 1st coat light, 2nd coat wet. I then noticed a few little hairs or fuzz, so after it dryed I wetsanded w/ 600 and cleared again. The fuzz didnt show up but I noticed a couple of dimple-looking or fisheyes I guess, they look like little pinholes. Can you tell me what causes this. Will they disappear after I buff?

I would have said they were solvent pop since they are so small, but you mentioned your first coats of clear were dry before applying the second coats of clear, so I don't think it is that. Also, if you get solvent pop, you usually just don't get a couple of them.
So they probably are fish eyes.

Buffing will not take these out.

You can take a very small brush or possibly a paper towel (twist a very small piece so it has a nice point), mix up a very small amount of clear (with catalyst), dip the point in your clear and place a *very* small dap on the spots. Once dried (be sure they are dried good), you can block these out with 2000 grit, then proceed to buff.
