Why should it be a problem ?
Hey Karl,
I agree, I don't think getting rained on periodically ultimately causes
paint or gel coat bubbling. As you said there are millions of cars and
hundreds of thousands of airplanes that sit in the rain most of their lives and
don't develop blistering. What I was talking about was moisture being held
in constant contact with the finish, as it would by being in contact with a
rain soaked padding over several weeks and that is indeed what caused the
bubbling I described.
We recommend to our customers a periodic application of a good quality
Carnuba wax (like Mother's) or Wx Block (available from wingsandwheels.com)
because it helps the finish shed water and also provides some UV protection.
Makes your bird all nice and shiny, too.
