As far as I know, Shetlands simply called it magnolia.

I have plans to do it myself too. What am gonna do is to buy white gelcoat filler and beige dye and mix it to get satisfying results.

Hi guys, re paint colour, I had a similar issue on my Black Hawk, the additive is a specific compound & you mix a tiny bit into clear gel. The problem is it only comes in BIG tins, so it will last a lifetime. Not sure of your exact colour but I think I put a RAL No in a post a few years back. Not sure if Ian1209 is still a member but he has a tin of the stuff, you never know?
