post a pic, im not totally understading what oyu mean by sunburn, it can range anywhere form oxidation which can be removed by compound and polish to peeling clear coat in which you may be able to save teh paint by respraying clear, to the point where the pait is just gone and you need to repair the whole thing. black cars are the worst and the fact that we drive german cars dosent help since germans use thin clearcoats.

Post a pic if you can. Sounds like paint oxidation, in which case, TR-3 is the best stuff I know of for that.
