I have a 1983 O'Day 23 that needs some cosmetic gelcoat repairs. Does anyone have esperience matching the color or know what color O'Day used? It is not a true white.

Color

Go to home depot or whatever and get some color samples close to the boat. Then take them back to the boat and get a good match. Then go back to HD and ask the paint department to tell you which pigments make that color. Don't worry about it if there are lots of pigments, just mix up a batch and add the major guys in the right ratios and spread out a sample on a chip, then check it against the boat. I think you'll be pleased. Justin - O'day Owners' Web
