Steve -

Keep in mind:

The factory gelcoat was, in that period, hand mixed and the color varied. In some cases alot. Matching to "the" color is not possible. Coming close is a realistic target.

Don't forget the fading over the years is another X factor to consider.

For the rubrail, I would go to Sue Lodel at Twin Cities. She knows what is available and provides superior service.

Thanks, Im hesitant to use a single part. have you used and tested the durability of this product, epecially on the inside of the boat where you see alot of wear and tear.

Remember you can mix the colors without the hardener to get what you want. I measured carefully what I was adding so I was able to replicate it later.

Steve, I find the Totalboat single part polyurethane to be fairly durable and very easy to use and touch up.
