Looks like its only cloudy where you painted over tar,paint or dirt.
ie,not bare metal.
Im guessing Chop is pretty close on this one.

What exactly did you use.
As long as it has all dried and has adhered properly it's probably OK.

What was the temperature when you started? What was the temperature two hours later? What was the humidity? What did you thin it with? How many coats did you put on? How long did you leave it between coats?
Answer those questions then i'll ask more.....
Cheers.
