gel is a bad word.... it is paint, or a lack there of that dave was talking about... it will be silver/blue/white much like yours, but the base color is gonna be blue instead of the white like yours.....

gel is the pigmented resin used "in" the mold to give the boat a uniform surface when pulled from the mold. not sure about gel paint though unless you were talking about gelcoat.
