You can touch it up its color and clear and then start buffing again

Let each coat of clear flash off for 15-20 minutes then spray the next coat.
Practice on a panel on your spraying speed.
You want to go slow enough where the clear is going on wet with little to no peel.
But not too slow to where the clear will run.
