I have a 914 with fiberglass flairs. A the top of each flair near the seam the paint is bubbling. A complete re paint is not in the cards. Does anybody have experience with such a problem? Thanks

My 40year old seams do this as well. I sand down to the rust, clean it up and use paint matched rattle cans to touch it up. It isn't pretty (fine at 20feet) and often it bubbles again, but that's all you can do short of actually fixing the seam and stopping moisture intrusion. No point in giving it a real paint job unless you fix the underlying issue.
