Do you think it would do well protecting the paint and underlying body on horizontal areas where the clear coat is peeling?

Any comments from you or others will be appreciated.

Thanks,

I don't think that any wipe-on product is going to help with your issue. Doing decent repairs isn't that difficult. With spray bombs for your base coat and a catalyzed 2K clear coat like SprayMax a decent job can be achieved. You can feather the repair area into the panel, then clear the entire panel. I'll link you to some repairs I did before I decided to build a booth and paint my whole car. I did these repairs outside and it turned out pretty good. I did get a wee bit of stuff in the clear, but much of it will wetsand and polish out.

Here is a spray bomb of paint:
