Are there any suggestions on where I can purchase a like-color red. Epoxy, emeron(sp) or ?. Spray or brush on?
It originally looked like it was applied with a mop (it's not so smooth, is that an original look?)
Boat is 1990 Cig Bullet
Thank you,

Where to buy, epoxy, imron, spray, brush, application, color codes? I would like to re-do mine possibly as well.
Thanks Chris

UPDATE:
Dragon Dude:Scott Smith (great guy!) gave me a lead.
He stated that they use to use Red Gel by Cook Composites and Polymers.
I did a yahoo search {Cook Composites and PolymersP.O. box 419389, Kansas City, MO 64141-6389 800-821-3590}
They have a web site http://www.ccponline.com/
so i will check out.
BTW,I made up my mind- Red it will stay-oem. (the color reminds me of the early 911S engine cowlings were red as opposed to the lower h.p. E and the T models; old school again )
BIGGUS-absolutely gorgeous!
MrCig= impressive as well
polished components (blowers and tube headers) sure accent the red-
Thanks guys-time to spend more money
