Re: Possibility of beginning of clearcoat failure
I also live in a sunny environment (Central Florida) and agree that does look like the beginnings of clearcoat failure. In my location it usually begins on the front of the roof, then the front of the hood.
Is it possible that your car was polished to cause the clearcoat to be very thin in those areas?

Re: Possibility of beginning of clearcoat failure
I believe that may be the case. I polish the car using Autoglym Super Resin Polish by hand, which is supposedly not an Abrasive, but polishing it last week to try to remedy the issue made it seem kind of worse unfortunately.

Did you see any pigment as in the color of the bascoat coming off the area you polishes and onto your applicator pad?

Hi Mike, no, never seen any colour come off, neither when applying, nor when buffing
