I agree with Rick.
What is underneath that paint?

HEY,
I dont have any solutions but i do know why this happens(at least i think i o) It is because you applied the paint too quick and in one heavy coat. This traps air in the paint and causes bubbles to form and pop on the surface. Guys please tell me if im right or wrong. To stop this, when you are painting, do it in light caots. I use to have the same problem with my cars and i dont no more so that must be the way to stop it.
