I need a small repair kit for gel coat on my 1991 sport nautique which is Teal in color. A dealer referred me to spectrumcolor.com, but they only had a gallon of teal for $350. I only need about 4oz. Thanks

Jeff,
Gel kits are available in several sizes and by a couple name brand manufacturers. They contain pigments to color the base gel to the color needed. On line or your local marine supply will have them. The trick is matching the color!! Use extreamly small amounts of the pigment untill you get it correct and then add the hardener.

Minicraft of Florida should have an exact match in small amounts. They have my '88 so I would expect them to have your boat as it's newer.
