Default How to tint white gelcoat?

I have a 2001 baja outlaw. I'm repairing a couple of small spots of gelcoat. The Gelcoat I have is just too white. What colors should I use to darken the white just a little? My boat has really seen very little sun, so I would say it's not very yellowed, if at all. I just need to tone down the white a little. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

I have just been through this. Get the patch paste from Spectrum, who are the original gel suppliers to Baja.

It is a perfect match for polished gel coat. If you haven't buffed the boat in a while it may not match, but will when you clean the boat up.
