I had to move my speedo pick up to accomodate for the addition of my trim tabs. I have read so many threads concerning patching what is literally (4) 7/64 of an inch holes for the screws that were used. Here is what i have done so far. I cleaned out the holes that are about an 1 inch deep, cleaned the surrounding area with goof off and degreaser, purchased the WaterWeld (made by JB Weld) from Lowes, cut off the pieces/kneaded them together/rolled them into long noodles and shoved them in to the holes. After 24 hours I sanded the spots down smooth 320 grit. So I take it I am supposed to repair the surface with epoxy resin for fiberglass? So my questions is this and it may be stupid but how else do you get answers without asking. I know the Rust Oleum enamel has a forest green paint in both can and quart that is a direct match for my boat. Can I just pre-tint the resin of the mix with the added paint and then do the hardener? And if so... can I spray the resin on in layers then sand it down?
