The best way to prevent peeling is to regularly wash and wax your vehicle.

When you see dirt clinging to painted areas, that means all sorts of nasty stuff like pollution from exhaust (washed out of the air/off from road surfaces by rain) and salts from the roadway, et cetera are clinging to (and doubtlessly harming) your paint at the same time. Waxing helps keep a barrier between your expensive paint job and harmful substances.
