Default Gel coat question

My husband and I bought a 2000 Mariah Shabah 22 that has some major dings and scratches. We are going to do the gel coat work ourselves but realized that the boat is slightly two-toned. The lower half is a very light gray. Any advise on how to mix the color correctly or any do's and dont's would be greatly appreciated!

    As far as matching the color, you can try mini-craft of Florida. You can get color matched gel coat from them pre mixed. They have a chart with all the colors by year.
