Tracker bought Spectrum so you might contact them and see if they could give you a lead on the paint.

For spray application or touch up with a nail polish brush ?

Is it a base coat clear coat ?

Nothing matches Marine white aside from Marine white. You can get lucky and match up a car color white or another boat color white. Again do you what it in a spray can or just a can of white where you have to spray it yourself VIA gun .. ? Clearcoat.. ?

Application method would help here.

YD.

Re: touch up paint

well lol I found a spray can in the box that came with the boat. Of course it's empty but I thought it would be a good reference in my search. here is the exact label. TOUCH UP PAINT US MARINE 5H180 BOAT WHITE ENAMEL US MARINE CORPORATION 105 MARINE DRIVE HARTFORD WI 53027. 13 OUNCES. Yep that's it but could not find nothing when I searched the web but it a very old can lol. Thanks licorice

Re: touch up paint

The only suggestion I can come up with is to try an Automotive Paint and Body Supply house in your neighborhood...take the can, and if there is a part on the boat with the same color that you can remove and take with you, most places can match it for you with a similar or compatible type paint...maybe even special order a pint for you in a marine formulation...

Sorry, it's what was left of my .02?...:redface:

Good Luck...
