Works as described
If you use the product according to the instructions, it works wonderfully and protects the affected areas

Functions
Fine cracks have formed in various corners of our boat. If you wanted to repair these using conventional means, you would have to sand the cracks ("make them wide"), fill them with gelcoat, sand and polish them. Of course, this would then look great. With this "crack repair" you can fill cracks in a reasonably good-looking way with much less effort - the thin paint can be applied easily with the fine brush and it creeps well into the cracks (at least at the 30°C temperature we had).

Quick repair of small damages
Matches the color, quick to use for small damaged areas in the gelcoat

Worked great for me
I wanted to repair a few small cracks on my recently purchased used boat until the "real" repair in a few months. I tried a few products and only this one really worked.
Just shake it, apply it (in several layers at different times if necessary) and you're good to go.

very good idea
The container size and integrated brush are exactly what you need to repair small damages.
Other colors would of course also be welcome (blue hulls are also common, and scratches tend to be even more annoying)

Convenient for so-called crow's feet
Used to eliminate some micro cracks in the candlestick area. The consistency is a bit too watery, but overall it's good. Dries quickly.

Great idea
A touch-up pen as a topcoat. A great idea. It didn't harden as much as gelcoat. The color suits the 2004 Bavaria quite well.

So-so
It's handy to have something like this on board. However, the application isn't very convincing. It doesn't apply very well with the brush.

Unfortunately very long dry periods
Unfortunately, after 16 hours I can still touch the product with my fingernail and press it in.
After shaking it for a good 2 minutes I dripped a tiny drop about the size of a pin onto a piece of cardboard.
The drying time is given as 30 minutes...
This applies to both RAL 9001 and 9010, I bought both to test and they both behave the same.
Our answer
- YC Gelcoat Crack Repair ist eine Farbe die mit dem kleinen Pinsel am Flaschenkopf in sehr dünner Schicht auf die Schadensstelle aufgebracht wird. Nach der Trocknung erfolgt bei Bedarf eine weitere Lackschicht.
Wird der Lack in zu hoher Schicht aufgebracht, bildet sich zunächst an der Oberschicht eine Trocknungshaut. Entsprechend benötigt das darunter befindliche Material eine längere Trocknungszeit. In diesem Zeitraum kann natürlich die weiche Lackschicht beschädigt werden.
Dementsprechend ist es wichtig das Material umsichtig und präzise auf die beschädigte Stelle aufzutragen.
