    Bruiser color?

    Does anyone sell the Bruiser color gelcoat? Or can this only be done by paint mixing? Any info would be great.

    Uhhhhh, it's black, then shot with blue flake and clear.

    It's not a "color" you can buy.

    I'm sure you'll come across one, it was a very popular color scheme.

    The blue color is layed into the mold first, along the parting line seam, then the rest is done in black.

    I have seen it done the other way too. The black band on a blue boat.

    bruiser I repaired had no blue gelcoat in it at all.
    it was black with blue flake

    when in the mold it would be: clear, flake, black.

    Bruzier

    I used automotive paint, base black and blue flake. There are 2 blue flakes what I used is a little bluer than factory. I believe what they use is the greener of the 2. If intrested I can give you more info.
