Gelcoat color code

does anyone know how to match the gelcoat color.  I talked to Scamp parts dept and they can't help.  I have a 2008 19ft

the color changes with time

Are you patching/touching up and trying to match the existing color?  I thought my 2013 was a nice bright white--I keep it waxed and it is stored inside for the winter.  When I parked it next to a friend's 2017, the color difference was striking!  Mine was more a cream tone vs. the pure white of the newer Scamp.  Maybe a marina that does boat bodywork could help match the color?

Color chart

Yes it may change with age, but the supplier of your materials should have a Pantone color chart that you can compare it to. I do not recall how many whites they have on the chart.  That’s how I matched the stripe for my graphics on the Deluxe. Please let us know what you find.

Gel Match

I've generally used the Gel Repair kits with included tint and mix to attempt to match it.

Older trailers will have fade and can be challenging to match, but with the tint kits you can get very close.

I've used the Evercoat products in the past, but most of the tint repair kits are probably decent.
