This has happened to me a few times when I use a "gloss" as the first coat, I have found that using satin for the first couple of coats as a primer, then using a scuff pad before a heavy or multiple gloss coats usually eliminates the problem. Also when I have used steel wool instead of a scuff pad this has happened, I was told that steel wool is actually oiled to keep from rusting.
