    Couple questions on Bass boat glitter?

    I need to patch up some spots on the old Skeeter. My boat is a 1997 and Skeeter doesn’t have anything that old to match. Couple questions.

    What size glitter is typically used in a boat? I will say on my boat the glitter look really fine/small.

    Where is a good place to purchase??

    I had a deep gouge in my Caymas from a thief's pry bar. My wife had glitter nail polish that blended very well. I did thin coats, let it dry and added slowly. Have acetone and a rag nearby to wipe up any excess. Once I tell someone, they see it, but no one notices the repair.

    it'll be either .008 or .015 size. Really older boats had some .025 TCP global will have it. You can buy real small vials of glitter at hobby lobby and most fiberglass supply companies carry it also.
