I hate to sound like Eeyore, but it's hopeless. <http://blogs.disney.com/oh-my-disney/2013/09/17/12-amazing-witticisms-from-eeyore/>

Even if you get a perfect match now, it won't age the same and will probably mismatch in a few years. Or you can mismatch it now, and hope that in a few years it will age to match the rest, but it probably won't.

I've done a few gelcoat mismatches, and after too much effort said F it and moved on. 12 years later I don't even notice, and they're on the cabin top in the cockpit. When I bought the boat, I noticed a couple of small gashes in the topsides gelcoat that went down to the laminate, just under the toe rail on the port side. Somebody offered to take my money to fix them, but I was focused on bigger projects (rig) at the time. I guess they're still there. The boat sails just fine.
