Title: Patch job?
Post by: ghett0man on July 30, 2015, 10:25:02 AM

Got this patch job (I think) on my boat. It completely bugs me. It's nice and flush, but the color is off. Anything I could do to match the area or is this a job for the professionals?

Hard to tell in pic. Sounds like you want the color to match....which usually involves painting.
Is this what you're talking about ?

Yeah. I'd like to color to match as close as possible.

I've got a painter a couple doors down from my shop...he's got a pretty good eye.
Best thing would be to bring boat down, have him look at it.
We're in stanton. Beach n katella.

Jarvis and his painter are great. Had them do some work on my t deck months ago and it came out great.

Alright so it looks like I'll have to have it painted then. Bummer. I was hoping there was a DYI way to do it.

Thanks for the offer. I'll hit you up when I'm ready.

No problem.

You can bring it down anytime for an estimate, free if course. This way you'll know what's needed.
