    Whos sprayed their own flake before?

    I need to respray both sides of my G's flake. No repairs needed just a scuff and respray below the rub rail. The current flake has been cut and buffed so many times you can feel it with your hands and its no longer "sparkly" as my daughter says. I've resprayed a bass boat 12yrs ago for a friend of mine that came out great. He purchased a kit that included the gel, wax, flake etc. Obviously they dont make that kit for the Nautique so I will need to source materials individually. Just looking for some input or suggestions if anyone has done this before.

    Before its mentioned yes I've called "the professionals" well the only two I have within an hrs drive one way and both are slammed with work. We plan on being back on the water late March early April so not wanting to wait 6 months for the work to be done.

      Man I don't know, I've done a few flake jobs before, automotive, and they are a sticky wicket and can go sideways real fast. A Gel sparkle job would be a whole 'nother can of worms. You are carrying a lot of value still in a '17 rig, would hate to see that go south in the shake of a paint gun. I think I have too ditto mikenbike211 here. I'm willing to try most anything, not sure on that one...
      Would love to hear the follow up on how that goes please.
