Depending on the severity of the run, you may find it is easier to sand it out and re-clear the piece for a flawless glass finish. My jobber informed me Ovation Guitars was using DC 3000. Stop getting runs. Easy right?

you need to follow Scotts suggestion an use a fast clear. almost all paint manufactures have one, sometimes called panel clear or spot clear. after you try it a few times to get use to it you'll have a smile on your face.

Try checking your air pressure and also allowing more flash time let it tack up a bit more.
