if it is bubbled up or has a chunk missing, its paint.

if it has many circles in it (looks like in the paint), its clearcoat

roughness, try waxing and buffing it. if you never buffed it before, have someone do it that has expierience

no its like a sandy rough feel, kinda like sand on your car but its in the paint. i used some cheap pink car wash soap from the 99 cents store..but i suspect its paint damage from the snow it was in last winter. it is now safe from snow but the damage has been done.
