Re: Delaminating clear, what to do

When this happened to stock cars back in the eighties, every one of them was stripped to bare metal by GM and the like, this is why. The base doesn't have much UV protection, the clear is doing that. So when the clear fails the UV is breaking down the base too. You don't need to do it where the clear isn't failing, but on that bed, at least where the clear has failed, strip it to bare metal or at least down into the primer and re-prime it.
