Q. What color gel-coat should I use to repair my boat?
Repairing gel-coat is both an art and a science. The precise gel-color depends on a number of factors including the:
1. Time of day it was applied
2. Temperature at which it was applied, batch of gel-coat used (each batch differs slightly)
3. The age ( as boats age, gel-coat fades)
For the best match we recommend you work with a marine professional to make any gel-coat repairs on your BRIG. If you want to match the color yourself, you can find companies online that will match samples.
We do not sell gel-coat or recommend any particular gel-coat vendor.
