There really isn't anything you can "do" to put the clear coat back aside from having it re-done that i know of. (involves wet sanding and respraying) You can save the existing clear coat by keeping your car clean and waxed. The sun (UV in particular), pollution, and salt are to blame for the clear coat going in the first place. Sorry I can't be of more help.
