Tks for the great videos. Could you please share which spray paint are you using? Does it needs to be Marin grade? Tks

[@foilsurfmachines]

any spray paint is fine

Good tip! Did you ever try adding graphite powder to the glazing putty so that it's black already?

[@foilsurfmachines]

Have not tried that

@@foilsurfmachines Follow-up: I did try adding graphite powder to the green putty, but it didn't work too well. You have to mix a ton of graphite to get rid of the green color and by that time the putty is beginning to harden-up. I use the original JB Weld to fix bad dings in windsurfing fins, as it's pretty hard but still wet-sands okay. I have mixed the graphite with that successfully because of the long setting time of that epoxy. I just used the glazing putty to repair lots of nicks and scratches on my hydrofoil, and I do like this stuff. Thanks for the tip.

What kind of spray paint?

[@Yanivkahana]

Would it work the same with 3m acryl marine white?

[@foilsurfmachines]

Not sure. Never tried the white

How'd this happen in the gorge, is it super shallow at some spots? Getting in and getting out?

I am used to sandy ocean bottoms. Rode my foil until it hits bottom on rocks. Also very difficult walking in and out of water bare foot over rocks.
