I'm wondering if there might be a way to get some touch up paint to match the powder coated rails on my boat. I have a rail that has a scratch in it and don't want to have to take the whole thing off and have it re powdered. If I could somehow just match up the paint and dab it on I think that would do. Any ideas of where to start looking? The color is purple - the same purple as in the powder coated cup holders that are around. Thanks for any help.

Try the big distributors like West or Boat US for a company called Edson that makes a white powder coat touch up kit. If I recall it was kind of expensive for a little bottle.

Edson makes blow boat controls and accessories.

Might work?h

Sorry, I meant as the base and you would have to find some purple pigment at the auto paint supply store.

A good autobody supply store should be able to match it if you can bring them a sample (like one of those cup holders). I've never seen it, but I've heard that the bigger supply shops have computer color matching similar to what Home Depot does with house paint.

Thanks - I'll give that a try.
