Armstrong Bracket - Touch up paint

[Bmoore]

Armstrong sent me a sample of paint that they use on the Parker Brackets. Figured I’d post in case anyone else was curious. I’m sure there’s other cheaper options. I just never could match the color. not bad to have for a few nicks here and there.

Not Gellcoat..... Gellcoat is used on Fiberglass. The bracket is made of alum.

I used an appliance touch up last year and it worked well. I think it was 4 bucks. Color is very close and now you can't even tell after a year.

What brackets are you referencing? I am just curious.

The Engine Bracket that has a swim platform incorporated in it.

The bracket on my boat was made by Stainless Marine and unlike the name suggests, is also aluminum.
I think it was powder coated.

I had some corrosion on the underside a few years back and after cleaning everything up, I used a white epoxy paint to protect it.
Matched pretty well.
