Luciano13 40th Wide Body Build

Is it possible you polished out the clearcoat too soon after you painted it. M aybe it didn' cure completely and caused a cloudiness in the clear that gets magnified

That is possible.... Its clear as glass at night and cloudy days. In the sun it looks like jet piano black, u can barely, if any, see the carbon fiber....

maybe try to wet sand it down again. Throw another coat of clear on. Then let it bake in the hot sun or under a heat lamp for a day before you polish on it.
