Fiberglass Gel Coat Color Match and Repair System and Method Utilizing a Multi Chamber Dispenser Device

摘要

The present invention relates to color matching and repair delivery systems and more particularly to the delivery of a gradient variety of shades of color of a gel coat, resin, and or paint in its liquid form, for the matching and repairing of and to existing colored surface and body structures and in the repair to gel coat and fiberglass surfaces and bodies typically found in and on boats, aircraft, tubs, showers, dock boxes and the like. The general purpose of the present invention relates to a method and delivery system for color matching gel coat to gel coat and fiberglass surfaces. The present invention and system allows users to color match their fiberglass gel coat surface repair by using a kit that eliminates the need for messy mixing of multiple components needed to perform the typical fiberglass gel coat repair. The system dispenser includes multiple chambers or component reservoirs that hold and contain the fiberglass gel coat resin color solution. Chamber number one (the main chamber) contains the “base” color while the remaining chambers contain the tint and shade colors. The multiple chambers form a unit with the attached pumping head. The variable extraction ratio of the base coat color and the tint or shade colors are controlled in the pump action head as it draws or pushes out the specified and chosen color mixing ratio as matched to the accompanied color match card.

主权项

1. A gel coat color matching repair system and method comprising the steps of:
providing a gel coat composition having a preselected concentration of color and viscosity; providing a first base material reservoir containing said gel coat resin solution; providing at least one tint material reservoir each having a preselected concentration of color and viscosity; providing a multi chamber container with replaceable reservoirs allowing for the replacement of base color and tint colors; providing the multi chamber container with a container cap allowing for the mixing of the gel coat composition and a catalyst within the reusable cap; cleaning of the prepared repair surface by providing a surface cleaner and degreaser before gel coat composition is to be applied; protecting the applied gel coat composition from contaminants such as, but not limited to, dirt and dust and containing the liquid gel coat composition from sags and drips during the gel coat composition curing time with the provided plastic release film; preparing and finishing the repair and the repaired surface with provided multiple grits of sand paper to promote bonding of the gel coat color match composition and to achieve a level repair; polishing sanded repair surface with provided polishing compound packet to restore and finish gel coat composition repair area;
