|
|
I'd like to repair two small gouges in the darkish blue trim on my 2006 25' C-Dory. I could mix up a batch using a repair kit, but if I could obtain a small quantity of gel coat which is an exact match, life would be good. I contacted the current builder and they mentioned they currently use Tailgate Blue obtained from Gel Coat Supply in Seattle. They started building the C-Dory in 2009. Does anyone know if that is a good match for a 2006 C-Dory? Any other suggestions?

Tony if you still have the manual with the boat it has the brands and color numbers listed in there. I guess if anyone has a manual for that year they could look it for you. _________________ Jody Kidd

Tony, there used to be a company called Spectrem that sold matching gel coat paste. I used them several times on my Boston Whalers over the years. They are able to match your gel coat color by year and product type or by sending them a small cut out. I know not everyone will have a cut out but that's why I save any cutouts I get from mounting electronics and other goodies on my boats. Also the paste is much better to work with as it will stay put in a vertical repair. _________________ previuos vessels

I have the same year and colour CD25. My manual lists the gel coat manufacturer as COOK White 953WA441. Unfortunately accent colour is not listed (blank). |
