My copy of the original brochure.  "Kevlar and Balsa coring".

As I understand it, the Kevlar is the real PITA.

The way it looks in the survey pictures is not what I would expect from a
delamination.  It looks like water got behind the paint which was used for
the original repair.  It sounds like this could have been caused by the
incorrect application of shrink wrap.  Until the water logged surface paint
is removed, I'm not sure anyone can tell what exactly is wrong.
