Re: Clear coat peeling around roof
Reply #1 –
Bob & Vicki...this past June I noticed the clear was flaking on the driver side on top of the roof where it starts to curve towards vertical surface. Used super fine wet/dry sand paper ( I think it was 1500) and sanded the edges that were flaking until it stopped peeling back and was smooth with the exsisting clear coat. Finished it with fine rubbing compound and waxed the area. So far I have not seen any further flaking. I think if I had not done this it would have continued to peel.
In my case I was able to sand the area because the area that was flaking/peeling still had some clear coat covering the paint. If you start to sand and see scratches that means you no longer have clear over the paint which prevents having the ability to smooth the edges. Most likely you will have a layer of clear though.
