Hi,
Doing some touch up on the boat. Are there paint codes or sources available to match the factory blue interior and cream? color exterior?

Thanks. I have tough time navigating these forums. If you can just email mem I think the email is in my profile.

There is a large color variation on the factory colors since all the gelcoat (not paint) was hand mixed. 50 years of exposure has also had an impact.

The most accurate results come from compounding the entire boat, removing the oxidation. That will result in the true color showing.

If the gelcoat is not shiny, it still has oxidation that needs to be removed.

Match the color in natural light.
