qualche testimonianza da forum americani di riparazione su Awl Grip:
I just had some done this fall. The simple answer is it is easy. The longer answer is the work is not so hard but it's not totally easy. Wet sand, fill, prime, paint, buff. We wet sanded with 1000 wet paper then filled. The primer was done and the next day it could be painted. We were hauled out at the time and being hauled does save a lot of time and hassle. We did the stripe on both aft quarters and both sides of the bow so that was about 4 sections 3 ft long each.
The color matching is more by guess with a bit of art thrown in. You'll never match it dead on given 10 years of sun and the new paint will have a different shine that also effects the color in ways that are hard to describe. Mine were some deep scratches into the gelcoat in the aft quarters plus removing an old boat name applied in white and gray Alwgrip over green Alwgrip stripe.
Pare un lavorino non semplice, ma fattibile. Un carrozziere nautico con una certa dose di amor proprio dovrebbe riuscire a farlo senza grossi problemi.
