when you say splotchy, how big are the splotches? are you talking little dimples that still appear shiney? or large areas. without seeing it, it's hard to tell, but small dimples are usually a result of using spray can paint and it's inherrant uneven spray patterns. One way around this is to wetsand/clean between coats.

It could also be the the paint can. Krylon and rust-o makes decent paint, but it's usually better from my expierience, to spend the extra dollar/per can and get the better krylon / rust-o (not the white cans) for the gloss black. The paint seems to be of better consistancy. Ive been real happy with the HD design line, I've been using that, and then Automotive acryllic clear coat.
