Depends how good you are at buffing! If you have a buffer its quite possible you could get away with it, by hand you'll be doing a lot of rubbing.

Basically if you have paid for this paint work to be done it should be sent back for them to do it properly.

It's been *liquored*?? I assume you mean it's been clear coated? which has bugger all to do with being *laquered* as no one who paints has used laquer in the past 10-15 years....

So are the runs in the colour or the clear coat?

& the anmswer to your question is: take it back & get them to do it over & this time employ someone who can actually use a spray gun... Rolling Eyes

If I had paid money for a company to spray my panels only to receive them back with runs in it I would most certainly tell them I was not happy and insist it got done again.

Why should you clean up their poor job?
