you have to let them dry, then put on another coat and possibly repeat that with a third or more coats .. if you put paint on bare wood it tends to soak it up and will make it look thin and dull .. usually you would use a cheaper paint or primer as the first coat or two letting it dry in between coats, then come back with your finish paint ..

You could put a clear coat over the top.
