So - For example

« **on:** July 02, 2010, 03:41:26 AM »

Have a project boat, it's an extra Carrerra Elite 205 - No engine, but other than that pretty complete.

The hull if really weathered and the what appears to be in laid 7 color gel coat (maybe) is also faded and overall this exterior is worn and scratched.

Dark gray base.

So - For Example - say I wanyted to change the color of this boat to all white with blue graphics.

Lay it out for me - having never experienced this - what could I expect - i'm not doing it but someone is !

Can this be done ?, would the current inlaid colors go away ? how deep are the inlaid colors on a carrerra ?

Doing the exact thing to the same hull, I will update White Trash II later today....

yes the inlay colors will go away providing you k2 prime or epoxy sealer or primer then what ever color you want for a white boat i would use white epoxy primer /sealer then paint good luck
