Gutted for you...
That's the key word here nobody has mentioned yet!!
Sounds to me like Mr Bitsy's boot is original paintwork, but the bonnet is a respray. (like so many Bonnets are when cars change hands through dealers)

Do you know Mr Bitsy if all your paintwork is "original" or not, as perhaps this Dr Colour chip product assumes working on Factory original paint.
I must admit looking at the close ups of your bonnet (before not after!), the finish IMO looks to be a respray.

Resprays (cellulose, Acrylic, 2 Pack) rarely match the durability of compounds used in factory paint.

Sincerely hope you get it sorted soon

PS: On a very tiny test area try removing a tiny amount of the mess with Cellulose thinners, then try pure Toluene
