Why is it that at least 10% of the time I get a blister/wrinkle problem going on in localized areas on the first resin. :mad:
What am I doing wrong..? What prep steps am I fouling up? :confused: Why O why is this an issue? Help the the hobbiest... :rolleyes:

Sounds like maybe too much resin. Or it is mixed a little too hot as well.
First layer should be gelcoat in any case for a seriously nice finish. At the least, spray on resin/hardner. I have done that with reasonable success recently.
