If you get a nice uniform yellow, you may want to spray clear over it, if you're worried about polishing through. AGAIN, mist coats only. A wet clear coat will pull the paint out too.

Good luck. If you have success, let us know what worked for you.
Yeah - I have already made a plan for tonight. I'll mist some more coats on, but I'll skip the final wet coats, and I'll have to polish the surface out. Thanks for the replies, I'll keep you all posted.
