if you spray it too light the clear is almost dry as it hits the surface it needs to be a reasonably heavy coat while avoiding runs. the paint or clear will have a wet look as it goes on also make sure the day is not too humid as the moisture in the air will impact on the finish

So, how many coats of yellow and how many coats of clear are needed?
Temp was around 30.
