Had my 914 bare metaled and repainted 6 months ago ,when washing her the other day I saw that the paint was blistering and coming away from the body where the windshield wipers are attached ,this is happening on both ,I was told by the shop that painted the car that this was due too old rubbers been fitted (there only 2 years old and they did the refit ) is this correct or are they BS me ,any advice would be great fully received

I would send that pic to the paint manufacturer and get their read on it. When they tell you the same thing people here are saying, you'll have something concrete to counter the BS you are getting from the paint shop.
BTW, why the hell would "old rubber" do this? Fresh rubber would be more likely to out gas something that MIGHT interact with paint but I doubt it. Old rubber should be as inert as it gets. Good luck! |
