Your Boat’s Finish
4. Using Ranger touch-up gel-coat or putty only, thoroughly mix 1%
catalyst (MEKP) with desired amount of gel-coat or putty.
5. With a putty knife, trowel catalyzed gel-coat in desired area, leaving it
slightly higher than the original surface to allow for shrinkage.
6. When patch has dried, remove masking tape and carefully sand back
to the original shape using #600 grit WET sandpaper. Then buff with a
light duty buffing compound.
NOTE: Area may have to be filled more than once due to shrinkage.
NOTE: Due to different dye lots the color may vary somewhat. However,
we take all the steps to keep our color consistent.
If for some reason you need to spray gel-coat over your patch, you will
need to follow these steps:
1. Mask around area to be sprayed.
2. Sand area with #220 grit dry sandpaper removing all shine.
3. Clean area with acetone.
4. Mix Ranger touch-up gel-coat by thinning with styrene, approximately
2 parts gel-coat to 1 part styrene.
NOTE: If styrene is not available, acetone may be substituted. Add 1%
catalyst (MEKP) to gel-coat and stir thoroughly.
NOTE: Protect carpet, seats, and all other exposed areas from overspray
by covering these areas.

Gel-coat will not cure by itself. You must use
a catalyst.
