iv painted some skirts and a lip with acrylic ... now i was all set to finish them off with the clear when i ran into a major problem . as i sprayed the clear top coat , after 2 mins the nice sparkly metalic base coat started to fade? went a sort of misty colour

does any body know why this is happening? , i mean i mixed the mixture right . 1 part thinners to 1 part clear top coat? , could this be the thinners eating the base coat?

any help would be appreciated?

its like this , i got some water on a tissue and wiped - and it showed the original colour ? .... its like window mist?

i know that after the 3 coats of clear have been done . you cut it back with cut and polish.....

iv just polished one with like wax and its gone away and all nice and glossy, can i carry on doing my 2 other coats ? or am i doing this majorly wrong , will the mist retain through the other coats?
