I'm restoring a 1970 17-foot Boston Whaler. I recently finished sanding off all of the bottom paint and noticed a sap-like substance seeping out of the haul. It wasn't much, just a small bubble or two, but I was wondering why it might be happening. I'm going to gel coat the boat in about two weeks, so wanted to know if I needed to remedy this or if it's nothing to worry about. Thanks!
I have the same problem on a 87 Model 18 Guardian, after sanding to prepare for painting, small cracks with a tar like sticky, oozing out of the cracks, there are quite a few, my fiberglass & paint guy says he has never seen this before, we do not know where to go from here?
