Matching orange and Tan gel coat
« on: September 16, 2025, 09:22:40 PM »
Switching back over to the forum after being successful on marketplace finding GT-150. Looking to fill some minor hairline cracks in the orange and tan gel coat. Any recommendations?

My Glastron's had crack around areas that had rivet holes for trim pieces and high stress areas around transom and transom steering mounts.  I think you need to grind out crack and fill with color matched gel. Most likely it's a high stress area and crack will reappear.
