They might be able to reduce these blemishes a bit by "dotting" the area with some clear coat and then wetsanding to blend; it would be less noticeable but not perfect. This is a common way to reduce visible fisheyes and other blemishes. Worst case is you're out maybe $300-$400 and it looks marginally better. Best case is you're out the $300-$400 and they're almost impossible to see unless you know where to look. Ultimately, if you want it to look perfect, they will probably need to respray the entire roof. I would consider that a pretty big risk because it's a large flat surface and you will notice any imperfections. OEM painting is always nearly flawless due to the crazy hyper-sterile environments they have.

is that actually what it is, because I have it too from previous owner. It does not pick off like I thought.

Before wet sanding I would try to buff it out first. I had those same blemishes on my carbon fiber wing and also the clear coat was starting to haze over. I just used Turtle Wax rubbing compound and elbow grease and now it's almost like new.
