help: clearcoat peeling

I'm pissed........for whatever reason (probably a crappy GM paint job) the clearcoat on the roof behind the ttops is starting to bubble....then it peels. Now that the paint is exposed to the air, its going to get much worse very quickly. I was wondering if there was anyway to prevent water from getting in there and do a decent patch job until I feel like repainting it? I've attached a picture.......any advice/help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Check out the thread above. Peeling clear coat is usually poor prep of the car for the clear coat. It happend on my 92 after it was wrecked and repaired.

I checked out that thread....very interesting. Thanks for the help. I'm gonna make some calls and hit up the florida forum to see if anyone has actually gotten GM to fix it for free.
