Hi all, I have been working on some large patches (6"x 12") on both sides of the stern of my M-17 that I am trying to have ready for sailing over Thanksgiving. I had some blisters that had cracked that were there from shrink wrap holding water in. I ground down the gel coat, and sealed with west system epoxy. I tried one application of Evercoat gelcoat paste tinted white but it came out blue. The jar of paste is old and I guess it turned. No matter how much tint I put in, blue blue blue. Ground off the blue and tried a fresh batch of Evercoat. The color is okay but the finish is very uneven, even after sanding. Most trouble some, the new coat is not hiding the black hull underneath. I looked online for advice and found some gel coat mix and small sprayers. I am about to try this route and hope 5-6 coats covers. Any advice? Thanks Robbin M-17 hull #601, Miss Take
