Additional information
Color
Black, Blue, Graphite, Marsh Mud, Olive Green, Green, Orange, Slate, Yellow, White, Anchor
Type
G4
The Combo is awesome; the base is a super tough super slick coat that losses some slickness as it abrades, bur still way slicker than aluminum or fiberglass. The GG is designed to abrade, that’s what keeps it slick. Also we recommend two different colors so you can see your wear layers and see the coverage when applying.

Description
GatorBase/kit is a primer/base coat that can be bought separately or in a kit of 1/2 gal with a
1/2 gal GatorGlide G2 or G4. GatorBase provide more adhesion and a tougher protective base
coat to the hull and a surface for the G2 & G4 to adhere to.
Thank you very much for your order.
After sanding with 100 – 150 grit and wiping thoroughly with acetone you are ready to apply the GatorBase. New aluminum I recommend degreasing with a degreasing agent.
Before starting GatorBase(GB) or GatorGlide(GG) mix part “A” thoroughly with a high shear mixer or shaking part A vigorously.
GatorBase: Four or Five “thin” coats is ideal, You can mix as much as can use in an hour. When you open the bucket mark the outside at the top level then mark half, quarter and so on and do the same with the catalyst and mix accordingly.(example: if you are using 1/4 of Part “A” then use 1/4 of Part “B”).
Give the GatorBase 72 hrs. to dry before applying the GatorGlide.
Once the GB has cured out, you’re ready to start the GG
Give the surface a light scuff with either 220 grit paper or a Scotch Brite pad and wipe well with acetone. You are just taking the shine off the GB and letting the acetone in.
Apply both GatorBase and GatorGlide in multiple thin coats using a 6″ inch X 3/8″ nap roller. They are the diameter of a hotdog. I also like working out of a 2 gal bucket with a 1 gal paint grid, get all three at Home depot, Lowes etc…
GatorGlide slick bottom: Five “thin” coats is ideal, You can mix as much as can use in an hour and save some for touch ups later. When you open the bucket mark the outside at the top level then mark half, quarter and so on and do the same with the catalyst and mix accordingly.(example: if you are using 1/4 of Part “A” then use 1/4 of Part “B”).
GG is going to fisheye like you’re painting a waxed hood. That’s just how it is, after you roll the second section and before dipping your roller for the third go back and dry-roll the first section. You will see it start to tighten up, you may have to go back again. After the second or third coat it will cover fine if you are applying it thin enough and letting it dry between coats. You have about a 70 min pot life, so mix accordingly.
. Wait for it to dry…DRY(about 20-30 min from when you start your coat) to the touch and start your next coat.
Please never hesitate to call me to discuss the application, mixing tips or if you just want to bounce idea off of me. The longer it sits before you run it the harder it gets.
“THIN TO WIN” I can’t stress this enough THIN COATS! if you can put the same amount on in 3 coats or 5 coats go 5 it will be a better job. All coats of GatorBase and GatorGlide should be done back to back so they integrate. Takes about two hrs. to complete the job!
Do Not apply at night, in direct sunlight or while raining. You will lose performance!
