Painting Interior Panelind HELP!

How's it going everybody? Well I'm in the midst of painting my doors, mirrors, and lights right now along with some misc. paneling. On the road to the showroom black/white on black/blue ... Need help tho.

Painting my doors, im using enough layers to make them all even. Some of them starting running tho and dried ... Tommorrow I'm going and getting some of the same paint (black vinyl) and clear coating so that I can finish up. Should I just use high-grit sandpaper and sand it down then re-spray or what????

Thanks for the help guys!

Doing a final sanding with fine grit 10000 or 2000 and then paint in very light coats. You'll get much better results by applying 4 or 5 very light coats than slopping it on in 1 or 2 thick coats. Take your time, do several light coats and it should tunr out the way you want them.
