For a guy who makes his living mixing chemicals in the dark that's not altogether a surprizing 'development'.

Fortunately you get to line up the shot again.

Color chem wasn't as nasty as Cibachrome chemistry.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

Actually, your real problem is one that is shared by most everyone on here. Not enough money for everything that you want to get done.

Can you let us know what success you ultimately have with touching up the Imron? My hull is painted in white Imron and I have been toying with the idea of trying to touchup paint some hull ding repairs. I believe this is more practical with Imron than Awlgrip...but haven't tried it. I assume I can find the paint match off the Imron chart.
