   get a picture up, if its a mettallic you will have sprayed on too much in one place thats why it will be patchy
   
   best to just spray it and try not to cover it all in one go, just spray a few pass's then let it dry

   I messed mine up too. I sanded it down and got back to it when i had some more time. Used plastic primer and applied the paint evenly over three layers. Allowed to dry for an hour then lacqured it. Looks mint now.

   But did you wet sand it and mop it after.
