Apply the clear early in the day before it gets too hot. Use a high temp activator. Lay a medium wet coat down first, then give it plenty of time to flash before laying down a second wet coat. You can watch the clear as hits the surface and see how it's flowing out. Don't be tempted to go back over it right away, it'll just cause runs or sags.
