Re: 1970 Correct Craft Mustang
Thanks Jones and Master,
Jones,
Im not going to paint, but re-gel. I know many will try and talk me out of it but I'm pretty set from the standpoint of originality, durability, and below waterline performance.
From what I have read if I were to use another product it would be acrylic-based polyurethane such as Awlcraft 2000. The advantage of these products over a polyester-based polyurethane is that they can be buffed and compounded and are easier to repair should they be damaged.
For color I will be using one of the colors originally offered on the boat. I am leaning toward a pale yellow hull, like a Fighting Lady Yellow and a white cap and cockpit. I am also leaning toward a color similar to seafoam green or possibly carolina blue. I don?t have any problem with the grey and I think that it looks good and was easy to keep clean, but I want to go with something more 60's era.
