The Rayplex Colormatch Kit will enable you to make perfect gelcoat colormatches.
Colormatching gelcoat was a black art science, but now perfect colormatches are possible time and
time again. Boats fade differently from sun side to non-sun side. Just a drop or two of the right
pigment will produce a perfect match. Have you ever had to reduce the customer's bill because the
color wasn't just right? Making excuses isn't profitable.
The Rayplex Colormatch Kit contains 17 - 4 oz color pigments that when blended can match almost
every color of gelcoat. Using the Rayplex Colormatch Kit your professional reputation for high
color quality will shine. Many gelcoat repair professionals include a $50.00 fee for colormatching.
The kit will pay for itself in your first 3-4 color matching jobs.
