alot depends on how the bottom was preped when it was initiailly painted. I saw one guy use chemical stripper to get all the paint off, then wet sanded and buffed the gel, it wasn't liek the top side, but it looked better than it did before. If the bottom was properlly prepaed, odds are you will need to recoat or paint. One of the local paint shops around here is using hte hard epoxy teflon paint for sailboats with good sucess.
