I am a newb to iboats and have found an answer for nearly every question I have had. However, I cannot seem to find any information that specifically addresses the question in my post title... "Will a new gel coat fix the color difference after removing old graphics?"
I have an 87 Larson citation dc190. The boat overall is in really good shape considering her age. I am gutting this fall and kicking the lounge seats to the curb, and updating the interior design with captians chairs a bench seat and sun deck. Along with all new carpeting. So I figured while I am at it, why not give the outside a new look. I have been looking at vinyl wraps but with no ROI for pleasure, I have decided against spending 3-5k just to put a 7 year wrap on.
So that brings me to this question. I am assuming that after peeling the old Larson graphics and pen striping off there will be a much darker blue underneath. So I am trying to plan ahead and determine what I am going to need here to color match after ripping off the graphics. I plan on putting some vinyl graphics on later but want to get her naked and not have "tan lines" where the old graphics were. Make sense? Any help on this would be much appreciated.
Agin I am new to posting. If this belongs somewhere else just let me know so I can learn along with everyone here. Thx
