got a run on first coat of clear

[dale002]

Just spray the forest coat of universal clear. I go two small runs, what should I do?

I would keep on spraying once they set up.
You want enough clear on there to sand them out later.
I would even add additional coats to the run but you got to let it
dry a little before covering so it doesn't run more.

I had plan on only doing a production two coat since it just a rear bumper cover replacement. I was able to lay two coats and only have enough left for 1/2 a coat, LOL! Two small runs blended in after the second coat, but I ended up with one run and an area of dry/orange peel. Maybe I have enough clear laid that I can wet sand it down and buff it out without breaking through.

You should be good, considering you're on a crown. Just be careful and block it out.

The run will take longer to cure so be patient before jumping on it with sandpaper or a de-nibbing blade.

It helps if you sand the top of the run a bit after it dries a day. Then, let it set another day or two. That will allow the solvents to escape more.
