BoatUS Magazine's Mark Corke takes you through the steps for how to repair boat gelcoat. This gel coat repair DIY if you need to fix a boat ding, crack, or scratch is not difficult and could save you a lot of money by doing it yourself and still get professional results. The process for repairing gelcoat on a boat (on flat surfaces) starts by preparing the area to be repaired by thoroughly cleaning with soap and water and then acetone. Use a Dremel with a burr bit to open up the repair area, then vacuum the dust. Mix the gelcoat according to manufacturer directions and add any coloring to match your boat's gelcoat. Tap it into the repair and overfill. Once dry, use wet sandpaper to sand it flush with the surrounding surface. Use cutting compound then finish with a little wax to finish it up.👇Scroll down for a complete materials list for tools and materials used in this video.

Thanks, brt 123! Glad you found this helpful for your project boat. Check back this Friday, July 20, at around 2 p.m. for a new video showing you how to do gelcoat repairs on vertical surfaces, like the hull or topside. It's still pretty simple to do for the average boat owner--if you can use a paintbrush and a sander, you can do that one, too. Oh, and if you have documented the conversion/makeover, do share it with us over at the magazine!

I just got done applying the gel coat. Mine was much thicker than yours. I bought a kit and it was a thick gel. Tomorrow I will go back and sand the repairs. I have about 20 that I dremmeled out and filled. I am hoping it will turn out similar to yours. Cross your fingers!
