Untill recently all corvette bodies have been made from fiberglass. The newer corvettes are now made from a plastic material, but have a much strong resistance to breakage and stress fractures. I am assuming that the question is being ask in regards to the body areas and not frame structures. If fiberglass is not properly prepped prior to repainting, bubbles can appear even after long periods of time in the paint. This is due to some type of chemical reaction from a residue that was absorbed into the fiberglass and then paited over. The result is a reaction resulting in the relesae of a gas that will then bubble the paint. It is very frustrating to put time and effort into a paint job that cost hundreds and into thousands of dollars, only to have a bubbles appear in the finish months after the job has been completed.

No, all bubbles do not have color. The color of a bubble depends on the light reflecting off its surface - soapy bubbles can appear iridescent due to light interference, while other bubbles may appear transparent if they don't have any pigments or dyes added to their composition.


Will air bubbles appear if boiled water is reheated?

No, air bubbles will not appear when reheating boiled water. The boiling process releases dissolved gases, so when the water is reheated, there are no air bubbles left to be released. The lack of dissolved gases makes it appear that air bubbles do not form when the water is reheated.

Why does bubbles appear when you squeeze a water spnoge?

When you squeeze a wet sponge, the water inside is displaced and forced to the surface. The pressure causes air bubbles to form within the water as it tries to escape the sponge. This results in the appearance of bubbles when you squeeze the sponge.
