Kumquat coat (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

peel

(Other definitions for peel that I've seen before include "Rind of fruit" , "5,27 [PRIME MINISTER]" , "zest, getting out of this scrape?" , "Remove skin of vegetable or fruit" , "Strip off -- Manx port" .)

I've seen this clue in the Jonesin', the Jonesin Crosswords and The Wall Street Journal.
