ScanmanDan- Welcome to AF!

Other than your panel line issue, it looks like a lovely job you've done painting the Escort. It seems you're applying your paint in thin, even layers- exactly how you want to be going about it. But you probably just need a few more of them.

Laquer (such as TS) has a characteristic that it pulls away from edges. If you spray a flat panel with engraved panel lines, the paint will be thinnest on the edges of the engravings. This is both an advantage and a disadvantage. On the plus side, you can spray on a number of layers without much risk of drowning out surface details. But you also have to be aware of this tendancy and remember to correct for it when necessary. To avoid it in the future, you just want your paint a bit thicker. Apply it in thin even coats (thicker wet coats will allow the wet paint to pull away from the edges even more), just more of them. Do two coats, let it dry for an hour or so, do two more, let dry, repeat as necessary.

Are the decals under or on top of the clearcoat? If the decals are protected, you may be able to hide the bare edges somewhat. Take some Tamiya acrylic (they make two dark blue colors, pick the one that's closest to or a touch darker than TS-51), thin it with acrylic thinner or window cleaner, and apply it to the engravings. Wipe up any excess with a cloth/tissue wet with window cleaner. It may not fix it completely, but it may help to make the edges stand out less.
