Post Gelcoat repairs????
Does anyone know of a company/individual who is able to do surface repairs to gelcoat, in the general area of Watford, Oxford, Luton, Northampton?

I'm in Aylesbury, Bucks, and I think that pretty much covers the distance I could travel with my Libra rear panel to get it repaired.

Here's the damaged one Red Vauxhall Astra driver did on 23rd December 2007.

As we can see i'm clearly far enough forward for him to have turned into the junction to my left!!!!!

The damage (not that you can see in the picture) are hair line cracks in the surface.

Repairing the Gel coat isn't difficult. Matching the colour is the trick. Stefan Carlton on the Team GTM Forum has a Libra that exact colour and couldn't get any pigment to match unless he bought some stupid amount.. Maybe the new owners of GTM will be a little more helpful.

Maybe....... :?: I did get a couple of film tubs of yellow gelcoat and a tub of hardener, but it seems they have gone hard over the last 4/5ish years, and were better as weights for helium balloons :lol:
