Default Base coat problem

I had a problem with some bad orange peel on my base coat that I'm spraying so I sanded it down where it orange peeled... Wiped with with wax and grease remover and a micro fiber and was about to spray another base coat... Well I spraye a little portion but I can see the little lines from the micro fiber. Please help me fix this problem ASAP!!!

if they show bad you need to sand with 1000 grit, clean it and give it another shot. Was the base good and dry? depending on the color, try giving it a couple more light coats of base over the marks...may just cover nicely. If metallic, probably need to sand it!

Maybe a final wash light grease and wax remover before the tack cloth if you think you may have got oil from your hands or other sources on it?

i wouldnt recommend blowing it off that will stir up dust, i use m600 to clean it off then tack it off with a tack rag, then 1 light coat of base, let it dry, tack it off then a medium coat of base, let it dry, tack it off, then if needed one more coat in the same process
