i was interested in color matching the bottom paint to my 1973 21ft Outrage. However, the Petit representative i spoke with advised against tinting the ablative paints. He claimed that the process to create a "unique color" somehow rendered the antifouling properties of the paint less effective. Not sure if that is true or not. I went with white and have been very happy with the appearance. I would recommend talking to the paint manufacturer directly to confirm if it is possible to color the paint.
