…just to be sure…
I’m sure you’re using Latex paint.
Next…I’ve had paint blister…but only under crazy circumstances…
…like…I was on the seal too soon.
But…that was only in a few places. I never slowed down. The lot was to be opened at 7AM the next morning. AND…all was well.
That said…there are weird things that happen…here’s one…
…a fellow striper sprayed an arrow…onto a freshly coated lot.
The next day…he received a call…asking “WHY?”
He went to the job…the arrow was 10′ away…in the middle of the drive lane…NOT at the beginning where he sprayed it…and it was turned almost 180 degrees. It was pointing kinda off to the side…weird.
I just laughed. It was like it was peeled up…floated away…spun…and landed…and then STUCK!
…we may never know……
My answer…?…sometimes molecules collide. That’s when we just chuckle.
How’s the lot now?
How bad was the “bubbling”?
Bottom line…I don’t quite know beyond that. AND…it just may be those surrounding circumstances.
That said…has it happened before?
