Pricks? Sounds like a case of fisheyes - "holes" where the paint/clearcoat didn't adhere to the surface. Once that happens, I don't know of any solution except to remove the paint and start over, starting with a scrubbing with soapy water - and complete drying - before every coat. Skin oil from handling is the worst offender, but mystery droplets (insect excrement?) can fall out of the air and contaminate the surface.
