This particular question has been reviewed and explained many times in this forum. There is a feature on Honda-Tech called a search button. This button is located in the upper right hand corner of the site.

To get the hood back to normal, you have to sand it. With something such as 600 wet. (if you take it to a shop they might do it differently.) After you have sanded with the 600, you can sand with a higher grit, if desired. Or you can just take it into a shop to get it clear coated. Then you're done, get a cold drink.
