you don't need to re lacquer
wait til its dried, use 1800-2000 grit wet and dry and wet sand down the runs and then machine polish

as said wait til dry, but dnt use 800 as chances are you will go straight through the paint too. Use some 1800, or 2000 wet and dry, and plenty of water, and just sand away but keep checking the depth of the sanding level so you dont go through the paint too.

i usualy use 800 depending on how thick the run is..cuts through it quicker then use a higher grade to smooth it off at the end and then machine polish..if uve got a thick ass run ul be ther all day rubbing it down with 1800..also heard if you have a big thick run then wait till half dried and shave it off with razor then wet and dry it..havent tried tht yet tho lol
