Thats what I was told by Fiberlay the local fiberglass supplier, and the 
"expert" I talked to prior to buying supplies to build my holding tank. But 
then he told me I needed 5 gallons of polyester resin, I used 1.

 Yes,   I got color strips from home depot, found a good match and took kiwis 
grip there.  They tinted for free.     Color match was excellent and holding up 
well after about 7 years.  Thinking of recoating this summer, but wearing very 
well.Bill Walker Evening StarCnC 36Pentwater, Mi

I have used Kiwi but not tinted it. I have heard/read that it is done easily at 
paint stores/big box stores etc. So I think it is pretty easy to do and match 
if you have a sample from your boat for them to use for the match.

Hello

 

I am sure this has been asked before.  Has anyone produced the colour charts 
for gelcoat repair?  I replaced a number of stanchion bases and now have some 
holes to repair. (I have the epoxy etc just looking for the final topcoat to 
match the rest of the deck)

Our decks are that slightly off-white light beige colour.

 

I am in Nova Scotia so may try Burnside Fibreglass.

 

Thanks

Hi Doug

Some would disagree with that statement (myself included).

Burnside Fiberglass loaned me the color cards to compare to my
gelcoat, for best results you might want to ask them if they still
do that.  I can tell you what my can of gelcoat is marked (or you
could try some if you want, it isn't like I'll use it all...). 
I'm at AYC, where are you located?

Be advised, Gel coat is Polyester based and will not adhere to epoxy, but
epoxy will adhere to polyester and or vinyl ester based fiberglass. Gel
coat will also work with vinyl ester based fiberglass.

Same question for hull chips - small batch for touch up of my 33-2
For the deck - 
I had a gallonof gel coat tinted by Canada composites - I had a core section of 
deck where I polished the non skid and matched it to their box of samples - 
worked very well.

   Burnside Fiberglass color matched a can of gelcoat for a 35 C&C  a couple of weeks ago (cabin top) which was a very good match. He had to make several attempts before getting it just right, but he kept going until it was right. I was very happy with the match.
