If ya spray in an unheated space this can happen, get some activator and spray it on to wet the paint again, the orange peel might settle, if not if its a solid colour gove it some 1500grit paper and a t-cut and polish after

Paint tends to go orange peeley when spraying in the cold, when its warmer it makes it a bit thinner and makes it run together nicely with less orange peel.
Rub yours down with 2000grade so its smoother, then polish with some G3 followed by a normal wax
