Issue one: cloudy mark on paint. Almost as though there is a residue that hasn't been polished off before clear coat applied.
Issue two: tiny, almost pin marks in the paint over an area of about 3 square inches.
I'm doing this on my phone so as soon as I figure out how, I will shove some photos up. Any help would be most appreciated

The pin holes could be silicone reacting with the paint.

Thanks for the reply, I try and avoid asking silly questions but where does silicon come into the process?
It shouldn't, but is in loads of products.
Silicon is a painters worst enemy

The pin holes look like they may be in the filler!
Lack of prep!
The cloudy bit just needs polished I think!

Them pin holes are most certainly in the primer/filler and have been painted over, because they have used a clear over base system this shows up any minor imperfections, as for that cloudy mark, it looks like they have caught it with the DA when flatting and polishing, it should polish out if it is that. From the pictures i am 99% certain.
