Trying to remember how to paint from those basic body shop courses 15 years ago. I have this effect on some other parts too, but on those you can't feel anything at all, just looks more likely sparklies or small air bubbles just below the surface. I think I layered too much on without enough flash time because I was getting frustrated with the poor coverage I was getting. You can actually feel it on this part, like super fine raised specks.

We called it "solvent pop", and yeah, kinda looks like that.
You can likely color-sand that out, but polishing will be a bit of an adventure... "Solvent Pop" was actually the term I was trying to remember, thanks.

So what causes it? Contaminants under the paint like oil or silicone?
