I have the same problem, one of my dad's friends recommended Meguiars Scratch-X, it seems to help but there are still little spots on my car, it looks like a dalmtion, paint would be the only complete cure, i believe

the door panels are still ok, plus the actual paint is in good condition expect for the clear coat (it shines nicely when wet!!)
So do I need paint the whole thing? or just clear coat the bad spots?

Talk to a body shop and get their opinion. They are the professionals and should be able to give you an answer based on actually looking at your car.
