Hi, Guys The *86 I am trying to get up and running has the Gel coat worn off on the nose from parking on the beach. Any good and easy suggestions ? I have a lot of heart lacking on talent.
Thanks Mike |

Mike - Good & easy are usually mutually exclusive!
Best thing to do is to re-gel the area. You can even brush it on, but the finish will not be as good as spraying. Some guys put a keel protector on but that looks tacky to me. You can just paint it - even tackier. |

Mike,
Take a look at Mini-Craft of Florida. They have a aerosol (rattle can) product that I've used several times on small jobs. One of them being on a stem/keel repair from a owner and his not caring about what happens to a hull when beaching. |

Pete,
Icalled the guys at mini-craft, Asked about the aerosol and they said I would have to buy a pump and some other stuff, Maybe me and the salesman were on the wrong page, Do you have any more info on the product? Thanks Mike

Mike,
The salesman was on the correct page. The pump is needed to get the catalyst into the can. The product is a true polester gel coat requiring the catalyst. This is not a paint in a aerosol can. |
