Clear coat

First off a Ranger clear coat is a whole lot thicker than a Hydrasport. You don't want to get carried away sanding on it, do a spot and look at it. Sounds like you used too coarse of sand paper. I would try polishing it first with a high speed polisher. A buffer will not work. You have to cut through the oxidation to remove it. I had a 2004 Ranger that started getting a cloud on the top cap in spots and polishing it would not get it out. I had to wet sand it and then polish it to get it to clean up. Rule of thumb is if you wet the dull spots and they shine like new then it will polish out, if not it will have to be sanded or reclear coated.
