Paint experts advice please
I had some tins painted in a matte finish. The painter I am guessing
hasn't done much matte finish jobs since I have some very small
blemishes in the matte clear coating. Buffing will gloss the finish which
I do not want. Would a method of wet sanding or rough buffing work to
get the small blemishes out? Thanks for any help or advice. Bad picture
but an attempt at showing the blemishes is attached.

Painter is aware of the blemishes and recomends he buff it and make it glossy. Painter doesn't know how to get rid of the tiny blemishes. At the price I paid I am not too concerned since you have to look for them. But if there is a method and is easy I will give it a go. If not easy I will try and find someone. Painting is not a skill of mine I have much knowledge in.

Looks like blushingto me
You didnt mention what type of paint was used but it looks like blushing to me. This happens when you paint in humid conditions and use a fast drying thinner or reducer.
Polishing will ruin the look your going for. I would demand to have it redone correctly.
Besides the blemish, it doesnt really look like a matte finish from what i can tell looking at the picture. If you paid good money it should be right..... Id take it back myself

It's really hard to see what's going on in that picture, are you trying to show little bumps or airborne contaminants in the film? I am assuming the light area is just glare. Because of the high amount of flatting paste in matte finish, anything you do will tend to will burnish it and increase the shine, that's why your painter does not know how to fix it. I suggest live with it or give him a chance to fix it.

You didn't mention how many blemishes like that there are on your tins. If the shop did both fenders and your tank and that is the only blem then I'd consider myself lucky. Also you didn't say where that blem is or how close you are zoomed in. Any buffing, rubbing or polishing with any product on the market will increase the sheen. While everybody likes to expect perfect work when it's their hard earned money that pays for it, I doubt there are very many people on here with denim paint that could look over their entire bike with a fine tooth comb and say that their paint is perfect.
