Thick Paint

A guy in the local club had a 1990's Bianchi Volpe painted in Celeste Green. It was not powdercaot, but an Imron type paint, which I thought was an automotive type finish. He had a claercoat applies.

The bike looks great, but the paint looks very thick. The lugs are not well defined, like the paint is smothing out the step between the lugs and the tube.

The bike looks nice except for the smotthing out of the lug thickness.

What are the likely causes??
