Default Gelcoat question

Hi Arnold,

How would you compare the looks of a painted boat to one sprayed with gel
coat?

Sherwin


Hi Sherwin,
absolutely no comparison. A gel coat sprayed boat will look like awful.
See Oldnick's post below. Good info there. But I am about to spray gel
coat on a small boat. I expect to spend many hours sanding and fairing and
polishing it after. I make a lot of GRP plugs so all that sanding is no big
deal - kinda used to it. But I won't want to do it on anything more than 10
feet or so.

Arnold
