The crew of the Lagoon 450 catamaran Parlay Revival fabricates custom non-skid deck panels in Panama using a mold previously taken from a Nautitec 46.16:05 To ensure a precise color match for the new fiberglass pieces, the owner hires a local professional, Julio, to tint five gallons of gelcoat using black, yellow, and mustard pigments.6:18 The process involves applying a thin film of wax followed by two layers of PVA mold release agent to the mold surface.4:17 After applying a base layer of gelcoat, the crew reinforces the panels with polyester resin and two layers of chopped strand mat to prevent cracking during removal.15:09 The team successfully pops the first cured panel from the mold using a plastic wedge, noting that minor imperfections in the original mold transferred to the new piece but remain invisible from a distance.18:37 The crew plans to repeat the process for the second side once additional mold release supplies arrive.18:59
