I am indeed planning on doing the “roll and tipping” method using the best roller money can buy and the same goes for the brush
My thoughts are simply this, apply a minimum of four coats, this should give me a build of 30ML or more thickness using a waxed Gel Coat reason for a wax gel it will harden to a smooth finish and give me time between weekends to work on it.
I will simply run a sander to scuff it when I need to apply a new coat.
I will place great emphasis on the type of commercial buffing compound and finish wax that I am going to use (compound and wax have come a long way)
I am in the process of fact-finding on this and will post the type I use etc later.
Keep the thoughts and ideas coming, collectively I think we can accomplish something with these collaborations and ideas.
Here is the hyperlink to the PDF on Gel Coats

Whatever you do, can we get you to take some pictures along the way...sounds like a great project, we'd like to see how it goes...
