You don't need to clear coat a solid colour finish, you can just polish the colour coat. That's what I did with my Daphne Blue Strat refinish.
So just keep on sanding and then polishing until there's no trace of the seafoam green, and it will be perfect.

I know it's subjective, but 'daphne blue' (absurd title as Daphnes are not blue) would attract a similar polarising viewpoint.
cheers, Mark.
I guess I just assumed that Daphne was the daughter of the GM executive who named the paint. It's pretty close to the color of my last project... Now I'm doing seafoam. I caught sh*t a while back from some because I put a red mother-of-toilet-seat pickguard on a black jazz bass.
I always thought cars should look like this...
...and guitars should look like cars.
I grew up on the West Coast of the US where the word "culture" was either preceded by "cowboy" or "car." Now I live in Miami, where elegant means that your shirt has buttons, and your flip-flops are relatively new. What the heck do you expect?

In that case it should be more accurately described 'Daphne's blue' then.
cheers, Mark.
By that logic it should have also been Mercedes's Benz, since it was named after Daimler's daughter.

Looks like you're not alone with that
