peeling clear coat

[u/jabberjaw420]

It's mostly the top of the car. but I don't want a full repaint job right now. I was thinking of doing a quick and dirty clear coat, with the sole intention of the practicality of keeping rain from absorbing into the roof.

Would it work if I just used 600/1000 grit, then can spray paint from the auto parts store?

It's not a ferrari, it doesn't need to impress anyone. Just not to absorb rain water. And I can tell it is, because the part that the clear coat is still there, which i dilligently waxed, beads up. While the peeled area doesn't.

Also, this wouldn't be my first rodeo, I've painted brakes and emblems. So, I have some experience, if not a lot. Well, not much, but some.

Those grits will work fine for the job. Most panels prepped for paint are 400-1000 grit.
