i would suggest to give a light sanding or at least scuff it with a scotch bright pad then clean with alcool before recoating
for the clear it s hard to say since we don t know how thick of a coating you applied in the first place. if you want less sparkle you can mix some of your starlite clear with a regular clear of same chemistry
example : 50% sparkleclear polyester with 50% reg. clear polyester )
i have done it before with good results
