Marine Tex Epoxy Putty. Comes in white gray and black. Best fiberglass DIY repair product I have ever used.

Good stuff. I recommend using blue painters tape to tape off the area around the repair. That product mixes pretty thick, is difficult to spread and apply smooth. It tends to pull on itself as you drag it with your application tool. Get it proud of the finished surface and block sand it down.


GOD is good!

I don't think I've ever seen just a clear in any of the gel coat repair kits. There is plenty to be had in large amounts for spray on application but it's likely to change the look of the color. It takes a pretty good effort to get a good patch of any kind that's not noticeable but gel coat does best if you work at it. White and black doesn't come out too bad.
