Re: Paint question.
It appears that you didn't spray the clear "wet" enough.... The clear will not flow as you think that it would.... If you over reduce the clear a little, about 10%, it will also help this. The second coat will usually fill these in. There is a fine line between too dry or too wet. Lightly scuff the parts, but don't break thru the clear, and recoat.

Re: Paint question.
Going to recoat this weekend. One more question: Would the clear flow any better shot with a conventional spay gun? Maybe more margin for error. I have an old Devilbiss gun that always worked very well for me, and is still functional. Also have an old Binks #7.
Thanks again for your help.

Re: Paint question.
Probably best to check the tech sheet from your paint supplier , some modern paints are intended for use with an HVLP gun .

Re: Paint question.
Tech sheet gives specs for both kinds of guns. I have the correct tips for each as called for by the tech sheet.
