oh
well if you know the clear coat is gone for sure, then the only proper thing to do is paint it
an easy and chaep way also but may not look perfect is to high speed buff it
it will remove the peeling clear and give it a more uniform look
until you are ready to paint
just don't expect great results
just something you won't be able to see form 10 feet away
oh yah the clay bar will do nothing for this problem
it will only pick and pull dirt and debris from the paint
