If you call Bertram they will be able to help. If you have a sample of the color you can get it matched; also a good fiberglass shop or paint shop should be able to blend it for you. Good luck.

Pete, As Ed stated , you can call Bertram for help but I don't think you're going to find a perfect match from an awgrip can. I just eye match it myself but you can take a piece of fiberglass from your boat to a body shop supply house where they mix imron and they can match it pretty close for you. I don't think they offer eye matching service for awlgrip, though I could be wrong.

I had some panels made by Glasstech they painted them with awlgrip using oyster white.They blend right in with surrounding areas.

Hi Pete, As Mike mentioned, Glasstech painted a large section of my boat and got a perfect match. They are not inexpensive but do good work and are very familiar with Bertrams. If you need hardware not available through the usual boat stores try Danny at Hightide Marine in Marathon. See you around.
