Hi Ross,We also had blisters.We have a 1979 convertible Uniflite.We had the bottom sanded and then put a copper finish on.Every now and then a blister pops up and fill them in.We don't see a big problem anymore. Toby

To: [email protected] Date: Friday, October 29, 2010, 9:13 AM Hi I decided just to give the bottom of my 1980 ( I think ) 38c a quick clean off and then a re--something or other when I had found out what was beneath the old layers of anti-foul etc etc... It is boat from the blister era but what was there was a shock. Below the water line it has some fantastic blisters --are they osmosis or blister blisters I don't know. When it was skinned off, ground and ground out-- with a few darker patches remaining, it was enclosed with tarps and about 5000watts of heat left running for 5 says. The skirt was removed and again wow.. all the darker areas have oozed...OK next acetone, a wash and another grind out.. and we see what is left. The vertical hull sides have small blisters. Then the topsides have no blisters, why is this? Then the shower is blistered ...and a couple of locker doors in the cockpit.. no others... Maybe moulded in a different location. In any case the purpose of this is if anyone wants to see photos of the work.. ?? Am happy to up-load them.
