is the clear coat failing, or is it mineral deposit in the clear?


If it's the later, clay, wetsand/polish, seal.

closer pictures will help

Time for repaint or you can extend the clear coat lifespan if not too chalky with what Deckoz suggested.

Looks like mineral deposit in the clear

Start with a clay bar and lube. Likely 90% of that will clear up, and the last 10 can be had polishing. If its good enough for you after clay, then seal it.
