Hey thx for the reply, lots of good info. My worry is that the clear is gone and flaking off. If I'm understanding that means I'm pretty much hosed with it comes to reconditioning and or polishing it back up. I'd rather attempt that then try to repaint the hood and roof. Worried about matching the color being that it is a '94 and as you stated my options for a rattle can match isn't as good. I guess I'm just worried about sanding it to polish it if the clear is really gone. Or am I just being too cautions?
