Default Clear coat cover up?

Clear coat peels away leaving one ugly hood. How can we "cover it up" for example without forking the dough to have it repainted. I know we've all got to have some miracle cure. lets see what works best.

i know peanut butter works for carbon fiber.....

but that paint would proably take a cut and buff and wax, as a temporary fix but you would still probably see it some.

i always wonder how ppl let their cars get this burnt.

I heard not washing and waxing like you're supposed to, does this.

The previous owner of my car didnt take the best care of the paint, and this is starting to happen to my car too. Interested to know if there is an alternative to repainting also
