05 Chili Red - Clear Coat flaking off...

The clear coat on the panel between the hood and windshield has started to bubble and flake off. It is about 3 1/2 spots, but all you have to do is brush it a little and more flakes away.

Car just turned 58K and has been garage kept up until this past January.

Anyone else having clear coat issues? Anything I can do before it has to go to a paint shop? I am concerned that more is going to flake, and in more places.

We love this MINI and want to keep her for a long, long time...please help!

Thanks!

-Jac
