This goes for cars. Do you need to add more clear coat?

NO....25 coats of clear coat won't help.....you need to sand BEFORE painting to give the paint a surface it can adhere to...and make sure ALL loose paint is sanded completely off before even priming.

I had this happen on my dodge neon. I just wanted the paint to stop coming off, so I bought a can of automotive spray paint and sanded the edges where it was peeling off. Painted it with the spray paint and let it dry. It didn't look the best, but it stopped it from peeling.
It worked fairly well,but you still have to be careful if you wash it with a power washer.

the best thing to make paint stick is thorough preparation prior to painting. If your talking clear coat peeling, this is not unusual and the only fix is to have it properly prepped and repainted. If you want to preserve the paint/clear-coat and get maximum life out of it, keep your vehicle in a garage.

I'll bet you drive a Chrysler product.
My wife has a Plymouth Voyager and the paint has been peeling for a couple years now.
Short of having all the paint removed, and repainted, there's nothing you can do.

As Richard G stated, it happens prior to the paint going on. If the person painting the car did not do the final prep correctly, flaws will eventually appear...even with new cars.

Clear coat paints suck. The old enamel paints were the best,but E.P.A. screwed that up. When I repaint cars,I use enamel.
