Anyone know where to buy teal green paint for dagger rival?

[bpoirier]

Hi there,

I'm in the process of restoring an old dagger rival. I'm trying to locate some touch up paint to match the teal green hull. Mad River used to produce a suitable paint but, apparently they stopped making it. Anyone know of another source?

Thanks,
BP

Garage floor epoxy-containing paints are pretty good. They used to be available only in one or two colors but today they can match the colors you bring them a sample of. Except for the bright red or pure white I beleive. This still isn't true for all compagnies so shop around!

It is important to cover the ABS inner layer as soon as it begins to show up because it wears out really fast after the vinyl is peeled off.

The krylon Fusion product is formulated for plastic and sticks very well if the surface is properly prepped. Not a lot of color selection but you could get creative by changing the boat color or just painting the bottom up to a line, say taped around the waterline.

I would hesitate to use garage floor epoxies as they are designed to stick to a more porous surface (etched concrete) and probably will not hold up to much flex. On the other hand if you park your car on top of your boat it should handle the heat from the tires quite well

The paint I am speaking of is for concrete floor, right, and does a good job. It is said on the can not to use for garage floor where car tires are rolling so I guess not exactly a garage floor paint... But it works great. Seen jobs done not just speculating. Though stuff I tell ya.

Shoot a few teals and grind up the relevant feathers in epoxy.

Or just glue the feathers on - like water off a duck's back
