    I do wax it regularly (every 4 months). I think it has more to do with the fact that some of our cars stay outdoors 24/7 and the clear coat reacts to the UV rays and deteriorates.

    I've seen plenty of dark colored cars (Blue, Green, Black) Honda Accords, Honda Civics, not just Mitsubishis with faded paint.

    Isn't there a way to spray more clear coat over the currently good paint so it doesn't go bad?

    You could either pay a body shop to spray a coat of clear over the existing paint or go to autozone and buy a can of clear coat and spray it yourself.
