Default clear coat came out like ****, hazy? Opinions?

I just painted a buddys 00 gsr last night. The car was milano pink, , Anyways i sprayed it back to milano red with the napa corssfire base coat , clear coat spray. Well base went on as normal looked dope had no issues. I sprayed clear and it seemed to go on well i woke up this morning and it was hazy and some spots looks not covered but i used almost a gallon of clear and this is not the first car ive painted so im not sure. I tried a diff ratio in the mixing cup that a friend that used to work at a body shop told me does that sound like a pressure issue? a ratio issues? or anything else im all ears.

how fast were you spraying the clear? Sounds to me like you didnt let the clear gloss up. Can you throw up some pics please?

If there was any humidity that sat on the car overnight, that will cause it to haze. Your best bet is to sand it and reclear it. Pics would be nice as well so we know wht you are working with.
