Has anyone found a good color match in a commercially available 1 part paint for BW's Desert Sand topsides color?

Don't know about a one part paint. Are you planning on brushing or spraying?

Best I can recommend, is find a _good_ paint supply store, one that uses a hand held analyzer that can take a "picture" of your hull, and download the info into their system, and mix up a two part. I did it with my upper and lower hull colors (two distinct colors on my Outrage) and had a quart mixed of each. When properly applied, I couldn't see where they blended after filling and drilling new holes for a new motor installation. I even brushed it on a forward platform that was made to fit the "v" (actual shape is more like a "u") out of Baltec and glass. It needs some wet sanding, but matched perfectly.

We used PPG Concept.

Best - Don
