Stu, I'm only in my residency as a Styrenologist, but the prognosis doesn't look good.

What kinds of paint and clear are you using?

[stulee11]

its automotive colour and clear

You can let it flashout and try to wet sand it smooth . In my opinion , it should be stripped and redone . You were way too close and applied too much clear all at one time !

7 or 8 light mist coats beats 2 or 3 heavy ones every single time .

Agreed. I'm sure someone on this forum has some spare decals.

Thanks for the consultation, Dr. Yost.
