I have a Beauford built around 16 years ago and it has just developed
a case of the measles.
A large number of bubbles have appeared on the fibreglass panels and
when pushed, water comes out.
This would appear to be similar to osmosis, that fibreglass boats tend
to suffer from.
Has anyone else had this problem, a local bodywork shop seems to think
the treatment to cure it would be expensive and time consuming.
There is also a hardtop for sale on ebay that appears to be suffering
the same problem.
Anyone offer any advice other than getting it vaccinated!!!!!!!!!!

 Fault caused by lack of bonding between paint and fibreglass.
Usually due to the lack of self etching or etching primer not being used
between the paint and fibreglass.
Cure complete strip back to fibreglass.
Repaint using self etching primer as first coat.

Also sounds like car not garaged this will accelerate problem.

Sir,
        If glassfibre is not prepared correctly, prior to painting, bubbles may
occur. Sometimes the glass has to be 'de-greased' for paint to adhere.
        I have not heard of the problem previously; I wonder if your vehicle has
been re-painted in the past which is causing this problem?  Over the years
there have been many tales about glassfibre all of which are in-correct
because of ignorance.
        If you will like any further help please make contact.
        A.D.B.

When I was looking for someone to paint our Beauford, we talked to a guy at Littlehampton whose business is making replica Formula 1 fibreglass racers.  He was adamant that fibreglass needs to be baked at about 40° C for around two days to release any inbuilt gasses and trapped moisture or else it was likely to produce the bubbles described below.  He may well have been right but as he wanted in excess of £5k to do the job I developed a serious attack of the wallet and went elsewhere where the guys left the car and parts in the spray booth for up to a week at this temperature to do the same, but at no extra cost.
