Mistakes happen during the application, and it's perfectly normal to attempt your paint repair more than once before you get it correct.
Clearcoat Not Applied - Waterborne Paint
It's very easy to remove paint from your vehicle if clearcoat has not already been applied. Just grab a cup of water and a clean rag, and wipe off the colorcoat – it's that easy.
The clearcoat (also known as "topcoat") is what protects your paint from the elements, and if it hasn't already been applied – it will be very easy to remove.
