Oh boy. This is nitro right? I haven't used it before so not 100% sure but that looks like a bit of pigment that wasn't fully mixed in, putting the clear on may have 'reactivated' it and brought it to the surface. Annoying, but not super noticeable.Originally Posted by I’ll give it a go
OMG this guitar is testing me, while applying the another coat of clear I’ve now noticed a different colour coming through. WTF.

Yeah sounds about right, it’s reactivated something I think I’m going to leave it and carry on. Gonna leave it all this week, sand it back just a little and apply the rest of the can. Then leave to cure for a few weeks.

That would be my guess as well. It's one of the perils of rattle can finishing IME.
I've had it happen and the only fix I found is re-spraying it. You don't need to sand it all the way back, just shoot the base colour over it, then re-coat with your clear.
It can be done as a spot repair but that can be tricky with spray cans. I did it once by re-applying the colour coat in the affected area; levelling it out with 1200; then re-spraying the entire thing with my clear.
Like I said, it *can* be done, but not always easy.
That'll be 2 cents, please

Thanks guys, it’s very much appreciated, I might give that a go.That would be my guess as well. It's one of the perils of rattle can finishing IME.
