You can sand all the edges smooth where the clear has come off but you will need to blend basecoat color back over those area's. If not the color will not be the same where the base was sanded.
Do it yourself. You can buy the equipment and the materials for hundreds or thousands less than you would pay someone else to do it for you.
It is not magic. A light sanding to remove all of the loose clear coat and then just spray a few coats of clear on top of your existing paint. If you get a run or two, these can be sanded down and buffed in after the coating hardens.
I've painted way too many different vehicles, including RV's, to agree with you. I was not talking about a perfect paint job where the entire coach is stripped down for a new base coat/clear coat finish but one that would be acceptable for most owners and cost thousands less than having a shop do it. Most of the peeling takes place on the top and front/rear caps and spot clear coat spraying will work fine and blend in close enough. Now if you want to spend thousands, just write the check.
