REFLECTOR: Fastbuild Wing Delaminations

[gpoole]

Certainly is Hiroo. Some inject and then leave a broad weight on top to
ensure bonding.

We were applying and sanding the "Smooth UV Primer" and discovered that our
fast build wing we got in 1999 has developed series of delamination bubbles.
Most are about 1 inch in diameter but one is about 6 inch.  Most are located
on top of the wing the near the leading-edge.

 

I have read here that the standard repair procedure is to drill a hole on
top of the bubble and inject them with epoxy, then sand smooth.  Is that
still the commonly accepted practice?
