    Does anyone know which "White" awlgrip Post used in the 2000's era? I have something to Paint this week and realized I didn't know which white awlgrip it was. Thank you in advance.

    color

    Find an AWLGRIP chip chart and match it up . The colors have been pretty constant for awhile.

    I don't believe Post used awlgrip. My 98 is all gelcoat. But do get the paint chip samples to get a match to your gelcoat if you are not spraying with gelcoat for the repair/refurb

    color

    Sometimes you can get really close with a standard color. You can take a color that is real close and tint the mix . Sprayed on color usually has a slightly different look / texture to gel coat . You can usually get pretty close . There are gel coat repair kits that can work .

    Also, when matching whites, compare the color chart to the boat's color in low light......like about 30 mins before sunset.....then you can really see the shade differences.
