    Clear coat on my hood is peeling and paint is starting to peel also. I know this is pretty common so I was wondering if anyone on here had a good fix that wasn’t an expensive paint job but still good.
    Thanks!

    It is not common.


    Hood needs a complete repaint. Take to a body shop.

    To do yourself you’ll need to sand everything down to the base color and respray paint the color and the clear coat.
    I would do this with the actual Toyota Automotive paint (you can buy in aerosol cans).
