Evercoat gelcoat repair
Have some nicks on my hull (in the gelcoat only) and need to fill them, has anyone used the Evercoat 'Match n Patch' kit do do this? It consists of repair paste, hardener and some color tints.
Any other suggestions without having to spray it? |
the gel paste works well, they give you some acetate film to apply over the paste to cure, i have had good luck with this stuff, it is thick and will not run like gelcoat [liquid] it shrinks when it cures so build it up a little over the surface, apply the clear film let cure then sand flush
|
works pretty well. Use more color than they say to. If you mix it to lean (only had the problem with white) it gets a blueish gray tint.
you shodul get soem 1000, 1600 grit sandpaper from an auto parts store to wet sand after yoru done. Then compound and wax and your set. |
Thanks for the input, will try the product out this weekend (if it is raining again).
Also, is the clear acetate film needed to cure it? If so, know where I can get extra? |
not needed to cure it BUT they says you can make it smooth and it won't require sanding. I personally never tried becasue it ALWAYS requires sanding.
|
thanks for the feedback!
