Mine was through the clear so I sanded it down and sprayed it with bedliner. Then I sanded that some to remove most of the texture, leaving a nice hammered feel and top top coated with Kyrlons outdoor spaces satin green and black. It's supposed to be UV resistant and durable. So far it's held up great but it's only been on a month A quick pic
HR,

Your Jeep looks great! Is that a Briarwood too?

Well, I tried buffing out the oxidation with a type of Turtle wax, and was unable to. I could see the clear coat is pealing. I think I really have to paint it.

As I mentioned in my OP, I have to research types of paint that are more resilient than what's on there now. The paint that is on there now is original from the manufacture.
