While I haven't seen the Don Yosst video for a few years, I thought that the mix ratio was more like 66%/33% if I'm not mistaken. Also, I would let the paint dry thoroughly and then polish out the body using 4,000 thru 12,000 grits before washing it and spraying my clear. I also use a tack rag before I start spraying the body as well. I hope this helps.
