Default bumper paint touchup

i had to do a little painting on a bumper, and the touchup kit i bought came with the factory honda black paint and a universal clearcoat. i noticed today after it dried that the paint i applied(with the brush applicator) is a little streaky. is there anything i can do to smooth it out a little without scratching off or affecting the color of the paint? maybe a soft steelwool or some kind of sandpaper.

actually you wet the sand paper before you start sanding. you want to keep plenty of water running while you are sanding as well
