need some ral Black gelcoat?
After my incident at Bovington, I need to do a few repairs to the bodywork.
Where is the best place to get some RAL Balck Gelcoat from, I only need a tiny amount.
Have looked online, and found glass places, but the smallest they do is 1 litre and it costs the same again in postage.
Any other places I should check out?

I've been playing around lately making moldings for my r/c planes and parts for my motor bike. So far charcoal and powder paint have done as
good a job as any of the ‘proper’ pigments I've used in the past. Quite cool as their damn sight cheaper

Unfortunately, there are not many boat builders around where I live. Land locked berkshire.

Builder's merchants (proper ones - not the B&Q variety) sell colourmix which is used to tone down mortar when re-pointing - could be worth a
try with some clear resin mix.
BTW there are boatyards in Reading/Henley/Maidenhead/Staines area if you want to try them.
Cheers, Pewe.
