Thanks for the advice, alas I have already wet sanded and while I've been able to take it back to a smooth surface, some of the cracked patterning remains. It looks kinda cool I guess, but since it's not what I intended and more sanding will burn through the chromacoat I'm going to take it all back down to the base black and start over.

Your diagnosis is correct.
That's just a lot of solvent pooling and pickling the paint.
If you didn't manage to get a lot of clearcoat on there in the first place, you might end up burning through if you go too hard on the wet sanding.
I'd use a 600 grit pad DRY over the affected area and anywhere flat, just enough to take the sheen off, then a grey scotch in the difficult to reach areas and then re-clear.
A mirka goldlfex or similar is a great option.
