Hello,
Doing a small repair job on Abby's Vital using Gel Coat. Looked on Youtube at working with Gel Coat....looks to be fairly straightforward and the job I need to do is pretty small.....here are the q's:
Are there different types of Gel Coat I should be concerned with?
Is there a "favored place"/best supplier to purchase from?
The color I need is white....looks to be the "standard."
The price was around $20.00 for a small quantity (two part mix) sound about right?
Thanks, Steve
Gel Coat, minor repair question!

Is that another one of those women's romance novels?

Hi Steve,
I've got some from West Marine you are welcome to use. I've got a couple of areas to touch up and add some additional sealing, if you want to get together and mix up a batch, it will make the portioning for the required hardener easier as the quantity will be larger.
Home depot has resin that is much cheaper too. West Marine is good but as expensive as it gets.
