a lot of clears no longer need or even recommend a tack coat. depending on his temps in the garage, i'm sure he did not let it flash long enough, plus on top of that,lot of clear. if the first coat is not flashed off properly multiply that by 4 and you have problems. Take it back to him.

this is what the op posted on the procedure of useing the clear. the first coat is a tact coat. however after thinking about it. the op's guy may have put the first coat on too wet, along with a 2nd wet coat with no flash, waited 15 mins. then put on the last. if this is the case, too much was put on before the 3rd, and the 3rd dried faster than the first 2. when that happens solvent pop happens. i don't know if a longer flash time would have helped it. that would be a judgement call for the painter in the booth, i'm sure he did the usuall wait and touch the paper timer, and felt like it was good to go. however it happens. to the op let your guy do his thing. he'll get it figured out, u could ask, if by any chance that he didn't reduce the 1st & 2 coats, and decided to reduce the 3rd for a flow coat look? if this is the case, the last coat would of dried faster than the first two, causeing solvent pop, and flash time can be ruled out. Captian OBVIOUS.
