I am looking for gelcoat for the deck of my 1985 tiara. Can anyone direct me to the right company to purchase a gallon of the correct color? Need with the curing wax already added.

Re: 1985 Tiara Gelcoat

Welcome to iBoats!

A Gallon of Gelcoat is a lot. Mind if I inquire as to what your project is? Being that your boat is almost 30 years old even if you get the Correct color of Gelcoat, it prolly won't match due to the fact that after almost 30yrs of exposure to the elements your gelcoat has oxidized and faded quite a bit from the original factory color. If you're doing spot repairs, matching what's there now will be almost an "Art" and not something you buy out of a can. If you do a search here on the forum for Gelcoat Repair you'll find a lot of threads discussing this problem and how difficult it is to match faded gelcoat.
