Thanks John for insight

" For what it's worth, we see
paint bubbling on glider fuselage belly's with both urethane and gel
coat finishes occasionally. This is almost alwayscaused by owners
putting the glider in the trailer with the trailer fuselagesupport
cradle padding wet. This usually happens when the owner is forced to put
the glider away in a hurry due to a sudden rain storm. The padding gets
rain soaked before the glider can be put away in the dry. If the
owner doesn't take the glider out within a few days and let the
padding dry outthe paint or gel coat will bubble."

Has anyone had paint bubble on wings or fuse from letting plane live on
Factory open monowheel trailer after it got stuck in rain and didn't dry
it?

Thx.
