Gel Coat Color

[Deleted]

I have a few chips that need repaired. Does anyone know if Sea
Pro used a tinted white or just bright white as the gelcoat color. I have a chip on the outsidefrom a neighbors kid mistake and a couple on the inside from fishing.

i am doing some small patches myself from the live well lids bouncing and will let you know when i get them on the phone.. mini craft is the supplier i think is the best.

A chip that size is probabaly going to take more than a little touch-up paint.. I'd fill the hole with a dab of marine epoxy putty first then touch it up... West Marine sells a touch-up paint kit that allows you to mix the different colors to get the best match to your hull color....white or off white should be easy..... sea foam green is a bitch...I know

More of a gelcoat paste to repair, it is about the size of a dime.

I have a 1989 Sea Pro CC. On my repairs, the white gelcoat and paste were too brilliant. First of all take an area that you are not going to repair and clean and compound that area. Then match your color to that area. chances are you will have to add grey then just a touch of yellow. I found that if you make it a little darker than your boat when it's wet it will lighten up when drying. take a little out of your final mix test it with a drop of hardener to test the match. Good Luck

hired a guy to repair that chip and several small otherones . 150$, better than I could do, it would cost me that almost in materials.
