Blistering paint patch


Recommended Posts

996 C2 1998 Silver

I have just seen that bird crap on my spoiler lid has actually caused the paint to blister and peel off, it is about 1cm across and then a smaller patch next to it. The picture does not really show the detail, but the paint underneath has curled up and will come off when I clean this. Is there an easy repair? I have a silver touch up pencil, but the area is quite large.

Thank you for any advice.

Porsche repainted my GT3 style spoiler three times because the paint kept bubbling, finally replaced it with a new one and I'm awaiting results. I suspect the underlying fiberglas was not properly cured.

Thanks wwest, I thought I may have to take it to the garage rather than home repair. I'll see what they say.
