Fiberglass paint matching and gel-coat cleaning question
Hello.
I am a new boater and I scratched against some barnicles in the back of my boat and I bought the fiberglass repair kit from BOW, but for the life of me I couldnt come close to matching the color to my gelcoat color. Any suggestions?
Also, what is the best thing to use and shine the hull of a 1991 31xcel Scarab that is in good condition?
Thankyou!

Those kits can be difficult to use because the quantities are so small. Also gel matching is an art that takes tons of trial and error over the years to perfect. Are the scratches to deep to sand and buff also what color is it? that would my first shot at it.
