I can't really see the problem well in the pictures. Is the Future beading up while drying?
I've had problems with Future beading up on surfaces, especially decal surfaces. I have fixed that by adding 1/4 to 1/3 Simple Green to the Future. It takes on a light green tint, but after applying to a model, even a white one, the green tint does not show. I apply the Future with a large soft brush, not an airbrush. Work fast and the brush marks level out and the clear coat is perfect. Let dry overnight in a dust-free environment.

While Dean didn't ask me to put up the pics he sent, I'll post them up if anyone has other ideas for him. Main issue is at rear of roof in front of back glass.
He did tell me it is his first build in ten years, so be easy on him please.
Second that; Future dries (cures?) so slowly that it picks up anything in the air for a long time. I'm a lot happier with Alclad products. Their Aqua Gloss levels out and dries fast, and is very forgiving of too heavy passes. Alclad lacquer clears also work very well and come in a variety of surface sheens.
I've said it before: "Future" is great for floors!
Gimme a pigfoot, and a bottle of beer...
GMorrison Or you might try kind of rubbing at it with a Q tip dipped in Windex.

Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
If you mean some light dirt spots, I'd let it cure for a couple of days then hit it with a light sanding with 1000 grit or finer to smooth them out.
Blow it off well and lightly go over it with a tack cloth before re-coating.
I just put a light clear coat of Future on the 69 Shelby I am doing and there are some spot bumps etc I need to get out before I do another clear coat. How do I get the spots out on the model?
