Spray paint mishap

I tried to clearcoat my frame and fork last night using rattlecan rustoleum painter's touch crystal clear matte clearcoat. The frame is painted flat black.

I followed the directions, sprayed 15 inches away, and waited 30 min between coats. I did 3 coats. When I went to check on the frame and fork this morning, the fork looks fine but the frame looks like a glazed doughnut with a white speks all over it. The frame was dry to the touch so I look a clean towel and tried rubbing the white residue off the frame; it came off in some spots but not others. I had to leave for work so i only had a few minutes to try to fix it.


What did I do wrong? Any way to remove this white crap without further screwing up the paintjob? Any suggestions would be appreciated
