I re did the sail panels 2 years ago and now they are starting to bubble. I used the recommended adhesive and prepared the metal but it still happened.
Is there any fix without completely redoing the whole thing. Thanks |

I’ve seen it bubble when the adveasive hasn’t completely flashed, but that’s usually a matter of days or weeks.
A sharp pin or needle would be what I would try 1st. I’m betting that relief of pressure will help. Adding glue will be messy, but if your other option is to take it off and re do it. May be the best bet. Other food for thought is fresh paint. I prefer to let the paint breath for about 30 days before I put anything on it or stick anything to it. |
