The clearcoat is the only real concern, so you might be able to get away with just having to re-spray a more durable high quality clearcoat on the car. That's what gives paint the shine anyways. There are products like Opti-Coat or other high quality sealants than greatly reduces the effects of entching from bird droppings and swirls. I would give Opti-Coat applied by a pro a shot, before even thinking about doing a re-spray. You can also prevent swirls by changing the way you wash your car.
