Was a car show nearby today, and seen a fiberglass hood I repaired for a guy- 1968 mustang with Eleanor body i think around 2 years ago?
Its bubbling blistering. lots of em, but not huge size, where I reglassed around the hinges that cracked when his hood flew up forgetting to attach his hood pins. And the bodywork got wavy and where there was bodyfiller starting to show in that area too. Now that bodywork matches the bodywork of the shop that built the car.
I believe I put on a couple coats of epoxy primer, block sanded and some more epoxy. I know I only used epoxy primer. I know about leaving time for anything the glass would soak up to get out before doing any priming painting, ect.
Other than those two areas, everything looks pretty good, I fiberglassed some other areas, nothing has cracked anywhere.
Gassing, contaminated fiberglass, air bubbles? Whats most likely to be the cause?
He hasn't said anything, but a while ago he wanted me to look at repairing a tonneau cover on his truck. I might have to stop over and look at it and talk to him about his hood, and talk about fixing it and maybe some pictures.
