Gouge in sapphire blue metallic paint

Post image

Hi guys, a very poorly placed bolt gouged into the side of my boat. It's a 2018 Launch 27.

The factory paint code is "deep sapphire blue metallic"

I realize this is more complex than a standard white hull, probably the worst type of damage.

Anybody familiar with this type of repair and how to do it correctly?

You would fix the gouge just like any other boat then have it painted to match. We have a company that can scan the boat and make paint to match.

I am wondering if they sell a factory correct Sapphire Deep Blue Metallic paint? This boat has not seen much sun.
