11 transom screws or former screws sealed with adhesive sealant were removed, properly filled, and a gelcoat patch kit applied. Color matching of the kit was definitely off.

Starboard gelcoat was applied but did not fully fill the depressions. Cleaned with acetone and applied a second coat. After sanding level a few air bubbles showed so a third very light "wash" coat filled the bubbles and it ended up a perfect color match.

Holes were drilled out, cleaned, and surfboard epoxy filled. Gelcoat will adhere to surfboard epoxy with no problems. Holes are ready for gelcoat.
