Ordered some clear coat outofdoorsmart

What is best way to get decent results? There is some aluminum that may need some buffing first. Spots are towards the top were ice laid on top froze drizzled. Should I mask around part to be sprayed or just hit general area.

I am bumping this because I am also interested in the answer to the question. So far I have been keeping the AS Walbernized and have applied a good quality car wax over the areas where the clear coat is missing.

I have the clear coat paint from ODM but have not applied any of it. I assumed the loss of clear coat may be an indication that I am close to a general loss of clear coat.

Any thoughts?

We, too, have some small spots in need. I'd LOVE to know if this is a possible/practical solution.
