Hunter 38 2006 what color gelcoat number?

[MarcinS]

Hello, I'm starting to repair the gelcoat spiders/stars on my boat. I can't find the gelcoat color number for the 2006 Hunter 38, probably other models of similar age had the same shade of white. Maybe one of you knows the RAL number, or knows where to get it. Greetings from spring Poland, the boat will be in the water in a week
Best regards, Marcin

I have this file from Hunter.... Attached! Remember to polish the nearby gelcoat before colour matching. Those are the codes from new, yours will be aged and will need a very light tint adjustment for the perfect match.

For most small dings, I just use plain white.......

I have seen this file, unfortunately it does not contain the RAL color codes. I have written to the manufacturer asking for this code. Unfortunately, I had to repair a lot of gelcoat cracks on the edge of the side and after the repair, the entire edge will be spray-coated by a gelcoat lamination specialist. After this repair, he is to polish the entire deck, so a good color match is very important. Thank you for your help.

In that case, since you have a big repair area, it would be best if your contractor were to do a color match on site, starting from a basic white resin. They can mix a big pot and it keeps well when sealed, so you'd have extra for future work..... Takes me about 20-30 minutes to get it just right....

I have been repairing exterior spider cracks and dings for something like 10 - 15 years with our local Fiber-Tek white waxed gel coat which is identical to the original gel coat on a 1999 H-310. No fade, nothing changed from the original.

Maybe it's the luck of the draw that their white gel coat is the same as the gel coat used by Hunter in 1999.
