I have had some luck in the past with flaking off clear coat by just wet sanding (lightly) and then polishing. It's far from perfect, but less noticable. The problem is that I was doign this to an area that was repainted, and I think I had another layer of clear underneath what flaked off. The base coat is usually soft and very thin. If you sand on that, you're very likely to cut straight into primer, which will look even worse. You can try a small test spot with the sanding/polishing and see what you get. It may be best to use a paint cleaner, like KAIO or similar, with an RO polisher. That might go ahead and finish chipping off the loose clear that appears as white right now, and it would probably not disturb the base coat if it is completely exposed.
