    I am sorry to say it looks like clear coat failure.

    Looks like the clearcoat is peeling. I believe the only thing you can do is wet sand and re-clearcoating it. Check with a body shop....

    Yes it is going to keep peeling, you will need to visit a body shop.

    you could try some rattle can clear coat - this should slow it down a bit.

    A $20 can of wax could have prevented this from happening.
