Default Paint Problem help needed

I have buffed out 1/8th inch fisheye spots on my back deck of my 66 conv. 2 times. They keep coming back. What to do? It has base coat clear coat paint over the original paint. Do I just need to strip it down to the original primer or glass and repaint?
Thanks for your help.
Don

What you wrote makes no sense at all. IF you sand and buff out fisheyes....and the clear is/was cured...the fisheyes should not come back. I thought I have heard it all...but this is a new one. It just does not make sense...unless you have not totally removed the impression where the fisheye was...and now you see an indication of where it was after it has been buffed/polished.

You got my head spinning on this one.
