Do any of you have suggestions or opinions regarding the best type of
paint
(urethane, epoxy, gel coat, etc) to refinish the topsides of a gel coated
hull?

Two part polyurethane.

If you go for 2 part polys (LPU coatings) Keep in mind there are 2 part acrylic
polyurethanes and 2 part polyester polyurethanes (sometimes the poly part is
omitted in the name). The polyester ones are a small notch up over the acrylic,
mostly in terms of chemical resistance. Priced in the $100 per gallon range and

progressive epoxy polymers

I posted to this before but messed it up. A lot depends on ther sklil level
of the painter. It's hard to call the BEST paint to use not knowing who's
doing the painting
