    clearcoat failure...

    I have several questions for the experts, about "clearcoat failure"
    what is the cause...
    what is the cure...

    my situation 2001 VW Passat, paint is/has been in excellent condition...
    in August I clayed the car, used WG TSR, then WG Finishing Glaze, then WG DGPS a couple days later topped with Pinnacle Souveran. then last month another coat of Souveran...
    and it looks beautiful... this past weekend, I was going to add another coat of Souveran
    and I found this small spot, and was told it is clearcoat failure... it is on the rear door, near the handle, on a relative flat section, there is no sign of a door contact "ding"
    my first thought was it was the DGPS, but was told it was clearcoat failure...

    and help or ideas will be greatly appreciated...

    Thanks...
