[C320-list] Magicezy chip repair

[jim brown]

I tried oyster white which was not white enough. So just got show white which matches better. However, I'm not impressed with how it "hides" spider cracks. Seems to rub right off when you use the patented end of the tube to level off. Seems to work better on youtube.

Ahoy all...Has anyone used magicezy on exterior white gelcoat? What 
shade of white is what I'm trying to figure I should get for a small 
repair. I have used the cream color on the interior, it worked well, 
blended in nicely......Thanks....Joe..#245...
