Colored Gel Coats dry to a hard sand-able finish. No wax paper, or special tools needed since it contains wax and dries with exposure to air. Includes MEKP hardener.
Available in a variety of colors that are designed to match the basic Awlgrip colors. A rough approximation is shown in the dropdown menu when you select a particular part#.
The gelcoat you are buying is an Isophthalic, NPG gelcoat with wax additive for an air dry post applied application. Mixing instruction depends on the temperature and preferable dry times. The higher percentage of catalyst the faster it will dry. Air and surface temperature will also affect the drying of the gelcoat. The colder the air temperature, the higher the percentage of catalyst you should use. Do not go below 1/2% or above 2%.

Jamestown stocks multiple shades of air dry whites way less hassle than trying to mix yourself.

I'm not a professional boat repairer, but have done considerable repair on the 5 older sailboats I've owned. This gel coat sprays easily with an airbrush with a small amount of thinning, sets as expected, and feathers nicely into the surrounding area. I brushed it on a couple of small areas and was able to wet sand them out to blend in well, also. I like that this gelcoat comes in a choice of colors; other suppliers seem to be offering only white, and even if you manage to match the color initially, the added colorants change and fade in sunlight. The cream color available here happens to match my current boat perfectly. I was even able to correct some blotchy repairs from a few years ago. Very happy with the results.

The label only says Danger followed by 2 paragraphs that are written so small you will need to get a magnifying glass to read

Product is good. Be careful to color match closely. The color swatch available from Jamestown may not be true to the color in the can. This may be due to the substrate color on your boat versus the paper.

I am using this oyster color gelcoat to fix spider cracks on my "new" 1995 Sunbird 170 FS. The match is perfect in some places, almost perfect in others. Package needs to include mixing ratio information. Found on YouTube to use 4 drops of catalyst per teaspoon of gelcoat. That ratio seems to work fine at mid-70s temperatures. Could use guidance for other temps.

This is an easy to use product and reliable. I would suggest experimenting with mixing very small batches to determine the proper amount of catalyst before applying it to your boat. Once it starts to feel, it goes off quickly.

First time using gelcoat I read ALOT about it and how to work with it. I had some small repairs on a 1979 Glastron Sportster and this stuff works perfect. Love it. The color I ordered was "cream" with wax and it's close enough to my boat. My boat is more of an antique white but like I said it's close enough for me haha. Trying to match a 41 year old gelcoat is near impossible without being a master at color mixing. Would highly recommend Jamestown distributors they shipped out instantly and received it very quick. Extremely satisfied. Thanks Jamestown!

This gelcoat in "cream" color is a close match for stock O'day gelcoat for the hull and deck. I have been able to achieve a match by mixing in a little brown tint.
