Thanks. It could be that the orange peel effect is less obvious than I am expecting it to be. But I got three more coats on today for a total of 8 clear coats before I ran out. I alternated coats between horizontal and vertical passes. That should give me enough to work with.

Strip sanding sounds like just the thing. I can only see the one run so far.
Excellent. Another tip is when you're sanding, go lightly on places like the edges where back rolls into the sides (and front on a non-bound) the "tips" and insides of the horns. Often these are areas that don't the same build up as the large flat bits of the front & back.

When I spray, I do my first pass of the application along the edges at a 45° angle to the edge and front/back. This gives a good build up on those tricky areas.
