blistering or bubbling under front fiberglass?

Looking to buy 26' keystone tt that has front hard blistering or bubbles on front. Is this a major concern and what causes this problem?
  • It's MORE than a major concern It's called de-lamination caused by water intrusion or glue failure. Either way, it will get worse and is a very expensive repair.

    Look for a different trailer.

    EXACTLY!! Delam is an extremely expensive repair and is usually something that spreads. Don't let yourself get excited by the concept of this trailer and make a mistake. There are plenty of options out there.
  • I wouldn't buy it. Could get worse. I've seen some that were hideously ugly from delamination/water intrusion. Good luck.
  • Thanks for the quick response to my issue. I appreciate your expertise and advise, so i am walking / running away from this one. You turned out to be my guardian angel, about 11,500 dollars worth! Kind regards, Rob
  • Good move Rob. Don't by someone else headache.Run don't walk away from this one.

    Happy Trails!
