Shroud repair/paint

I have several edge cracks (no holes) on my red shroud
Wondering what is the recommended product to do the fix?

Also best (rattle can ) paint to match the OEM color

outsider347, the shroud i bought had a lot of cracks and broken fastener holes. Soo, I JBwelded washer in the hole areas and applied the weld to the back side on the cracks. Then sanded and applied marine gel-coat to top coat and paint to match. Best, Mark

VFR 750 Did you have to use the Eastwood 2K primer prior to top coat?
