Mick if humidity is a problem for you in your area you need to purchase an infrared heater to fast dry acrylic clears. Soon as each coat goes on heat it up for 15 - 20 mins.

Hey Mick, I'm doing a satin black LP body - how are you keeping the minor blemishes off? You can't polish them out or it's not a satin finish anymore...
