White paint CLEAR COAT PEELING I need to know what grit of sand paper to use to sand the certain areas. I know some of you guys are going to give me the " its gonna look like crap" line. But I think just re-clear coating the spots wont look bad because the car is white. Ive been searching like crazy , but now I need my own feedback. Thanks fellas.

it will take multiple grits ( 800, 1000-1500, 2000 wed dry paper)lots of soapy water, sealer, primer, color then clear... then wetsand and polish a little at a time to get a duplicate finish.... I do it all the time

Once the clear starts to peel its a downhill spiral. Mine started this about 2 years ago, now my entire hood is satin, the clear is gone from the top of the sail & quarters too. And it didnt always peel just from a edge already peeling, it would get random bubbles come up away from the edge after it first started.
Good luck tryin to fix it but my guess would be it needs all the clear sanded off, fresh base & fresh clear put back on.

Ive been hearing that. But I seen a video of a guy re-clearing some peeling spots on a del sol on you tube. It came out kind of decent. I just dont know what grit of paper to use.
