Did you do it outside too in these low temperatures?

It is possible to get a decent finish with a can, but ideally needs to be done in the right environment too - ie a heated garage etc.

Did you use a clear coat after the colour coat?

I'm a professional detailer and I looks like u need to do a full wet sand and machine polish like a body shop will do. As when u paint panels it is nearly always the case as u will get orange peel effect and dry back. A full wet sand and polish is always the final stage in any paint process to achieve the final finish u want.

Id say try that first and see what u think really. If you went to a body shop for painting it would definitely be the last thing they will do. It's hard to say from photos as they don't always show it up properly. It's certainly the cheaper option than a respay.
