The only time you'd need to sand the basecoat is if you let it dry longer than 24 hours. At that point, you'd sand and apply another coat of basecoat color before applying the clear.
I'm pretty sure he's not use automotive paint. He last sprayed it two days ago. Should he apply a third coat or wet sand and clear coat? The paint currently o the bike is slightly rougher than he wants it to be. Will the clear coat smooth out those imperfections?

What's he using? Aerosol cans?
Sprayed the base two days ago - For good adhesion, I'd lightly sand that base with 800-1000, tack it off, and spray a light coat of base.
Don't use the mineral spirits to wipe it down. Mineral spirits has a light oil in it that will cause fisheyes.
If he needs to wipe it down after sanding, just use some rubbing alcohol. It will flash off quickly and not leave any residues behind.
