Default Repairing Clearcoat in your garage for under $30.00...I'm trying it. (Video inside)

So, a lot these Hondas have thin/non-durable clearcoat. When we bought the car, the paint looked pretty good, but after 2 years, the roof started fading and got progressively worse. I could easily bring the car to a paint shop and spend 300-2,000 dollars, but I wanted to see if I could do it myself and save a few bucks in the process.

Did an update on the Teg...A lot of people wanted to see daytime shots of the car after the "Rattle Can" clear coat job. Here are the results and the process going further to remove Orange Peel.
