Well the Duratec helped in regards to thinning the Gel Coat, Looks great however you still have to buff the crap out of it. First sand the ruff spots with a 220 grit then a 600 all dry sanding using a palm sander then I started buffing with a 2000 grit compound (use a spray bottle with water to keep it wet) then use the 1000 compound (which removes 600 to 800 marks ) then wash off with water ,next follow with a wax of your choice and wipe or buff off this is exactly what you see.
If I were to do it all over again , I will pass on the Duratec one gallon is 75.00,then after the buffing I really question my self how much of it was left if any.
As for the tip on the spray gun I ended up using the 2.0 mm from Harbor Frieght you were right on with your idea on the other post.
If you need the info on the compound see this link
