Non skid blue

Post by Walter Hobbs »

Hi all,

Search function was not effective. What is a color match for the blue nonskid on the early {77} CDs? Just going to do one section at a time so I would like a close match.

Thanks,

I don't know of any off the shelf matches but KiwiGrip can be tinted to match the color of your choice: https://www.pyiinc.com/KiwiGrip/kiwigri ... olors.html

I had a local paint store match my beige non-skid with a can of white KiwiGrip. The guy at the paint store enjoyed the task and did a great job. If you have a piece you can take to the paint store (I removed and brought in a cockpit locker bench lid) that works pretty well.
