Slightly off topic but need some paint help please

Hi all... Slight diversion from modelling this weekend as I had to spray the wing mirror casing on my car (satin black) - don't ask! Paint has gone on well but the final coat is left feeling a bit rough to the touch. Is there anything I can get that I can polish it smooth without damaging the paint (was thinking micromesh?) - if so, some guidance on what to buy would be most welcome.

 

Thank you all.

You could use some micro-mesh, however it may destroy the satin finish and shine it up a little. It won't be gloss, obviously, but it may not be the satin finish that you sprayed originally. If it's a rough finish I would rub it down with wet and dry and respray it. With satin black you need to apply wet coats to get a smooth surface. Anything dry will leave it rough to the touch.
