Got the wagon back..and bad paint

Picked up the wagon yesterday from the painter. Looked great in bright pink with white roof in the sunshine, but as soon as I got it into the garage with its 96 feet of flourescent tubing the paint looked a lot different. Not anything I can photograph, but most of the horizontal surfaces looked like the paint was sprayed over dirt.

Not a smooth surface at all, with many "pimples" in the paint - many per square inch. The hood and other parts had orange peel finish too. I spoke to James and he hopes it is a contaminated clear coat, and said to bring it back to be re-sanded and buffed. Apparently there are 4 coats of clear on the car, so we hope that it can be fixed easily...
