Ford and GM have repainted many cars which had started peeling. There were mileage and age limits, and the owners had to become "pests" of a sort, but it was done. Second hand owners cars were also repainted.

How old is your car? Is it the original paint? Is it less than 5 years old, and less than 100,00 miles? It may qualify for a factory paid re-paint if the base coat is lifting. If it is only the clear coat lifting that probably won't qualify.

Chances are, you won't get any help, except from a body shop! All the peeling stuff will need to be removed (sanded off) and a sealer then top-coat applied.

Is it really necessary to change the timing belt of a car's engine?

take it to maco or some place like that once the pait starts pelling it should be repainted. the only thing thay may stop it from pelling but im not sure is to have it clear coated but if you do that you might as well pay to have it repainted and the value of the care will go up a little bit if you do repaint it. But places like maco paint it cheaper then anywhere else and for around 500 not a couplr of thousand unless your going to have a custom paint job done

Just kinding ,depends on the paint itself some car have a clear coat over the top colour coat if this is the case then sorry but there nothing you can do but get the clear off ,and that means re-spray.Clear is a pain in the you what,they put it on the protect the top coat from stone chips but they do look terrible when the clear starts breaking up.
