Ok so here is my 2 cents, ( and I’m no expert on paint but I have painted a few projects) you got me close with the brand or supplier. Looking at the pictures you posted the paint has a gloss to it, that makes me think it’s a single stage paint. Most two stage paints that would be base and clear coat happen in a lot closer time window. So on two the new question degassing is the solvent in the paint is leaving the paint in the curing process. Some or Most single stage paint can be cut and buffed just like a clear coat. My Bronco that I painted with Deltron single stage 30 years ago has never been cut and buffed, just compounded and waxed ever couple of years and the paint still is a 20 footer. So I would do more research before clear coating.
