Has anyone had the problem where the paint starts to come loose along the lines of lettering or in my case the Stars and Bars on my L-4? I noticed it yesterday after an hour of flight. Weather has changed here for the colder and wonder if that has caused it or a combination of 100+ weather this summer and now cold. It is only doing this on the right side along the edges of the star. I noticed there is a slight edge left over from the masking when the original owner painted it. Any suggestions would be quite helpful. I am scared it will just peel off if I keep flying it.
