Jack, for what it's worth, I had an Awlgrip finish on my Arial.  Sun Gold, I
believe.  It tended to develop bubbles along the stern only.  I was able to
buy a small amount of Awlgrip from a local dealer, along with the activator.
You will not match the color because of sun fading, and ageing.  The best you
can do is start with the same color.  Carefully sand the edges, and the place
where the paint lifted.. Stay as close as you can to the edge of the bubble.
Use a small brush.  Use a number of thin coats, it's quite runny.  It will not
stand close inspection, but from a few feet away it will look ok.  Cap your
Awlgrip stuff tightly, and store it away for the next time.  Don't worry about
the gloss until it sets up and ages a little, then you mihgt want to use a
1000 wet or dry sandpaper, just lightly.
