WaYoop---how to add color to marine tex?

Thanks for responding to my post about fixing chip in my bow. I've looked at Marine Tex site. How to add color to it? Thanks.

I got mine at West Marine. You can get it in two little tubes that is a dark gray. They sell a black pigment that you can add.

I used some gray on my white hull, thought it wouldn't show, but it does when on the trailer http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/doh.gif I got the white after that http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/wink.gif

So, check out any marine supply stores you have in your area, they should be able to set you up. I believe Marine Tex is classified as a hazardous material, so the shipping cost is prohibitive.

Best of luck.

West Marine also sells Gel Coat paste, which is translucent. They sell tints for coloring the paste, also. I guess you can use the tine for coloring Marine Tex.

I've been using the paste to repair chips and gouges in the boat I bought. It is black, so it's not too hard to match. Mix it, dab it, sand it, compound it, wax it. Done.

Sounds like another good way to fix it http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif
