What are you rubbing out in the clear? If its anything more than light orange peel you will be there forever with 2000. Don't be afraid to go lower than that. For big imperfections I go down as much as 800 some times even courser. Just have to gradually sand back up to 2000 and buff.

Motospray custom mixed metallic. The paint shop stated 24-48 hours drying time, thought I read 24 hours on the website, but it seems like that's for 2 pack.
Tried 1200 last night, but I have some micro blistering, so i'm going to go a bit more aggressive 800 on those areas and re do the colour, then blow the clear as per the website. The issue I've found is the metallic im using doesn't take to any sanding at all, the metallic is right up at the top of the colour coat. Soon as the paper touches it, it goes back to the base colour violet, almost black.
Bit of trial and error, but I'm learning!
