CHeck out the above referenced post. To sand or not to sand, that is the question. Even light fading on a dark gelcoat will require some level of sanding. If your talking aobut the v20 light gelcoat - oh heck, I'm a advocate of sanding anyway. 1000 grit up - nothing coarser unless the fade is severe. I paint cars on the side as a hobby. COlor sanding through the full range of sandpaper grits followed by polishing will produce factory results. It requires light elbow grease but its worth it in the end.
