If your only new at this then the orange peel will be over come with practice, by learning to spray it on wet to a limit that it hopefully wont run.
Are you using tackrags before clearing .
You should if you arent.
If you feel there is plenty of clear on the car then just wet sand with 1500/2000 and cut and polish.
PS dont wetsand on the panel swages and sharp corners or you will cut through.
Also use cutting pads and compounds designed for two pot clear if thats what you cleared it with.

Woa u jus tol me what the napa paint mixer guy told me when I asked him today thanks. Time to try sanding and the rags

 

[wife_says_no]

make sure you put enough clear on and block it 1500 to get the nibs, if u feel comfortable u can plane the head of the nib with a razor blade. compound and polish
