Re: spraying gelcoat
Thanks for everyone's reply
I think I'm going to paint it. These areas are in the bilge and on the transom so I can just paint the entire transom and this way if the paint shade is not exactly it'll be hard to notice.
I talked to Yachtpaint.com today and they reccommended I wipe the area with 202 cleaner and then sand with 150-160 grit paper and then use 202 again and then apply 2 coats of pre kote and then topcoat They didn't reccommend using antifoulant because I don't leave my boat in the water. They said I could roll it on.
The aerasol spray bottles only work with gelcoat if you thin it out and then that makes it hard to coat. But for all you guys who still spray gelcoat, the main guy in the tech division said there is a new additive (no name) to add to the gelcoat and it makes the gelcoat smooth and dry hard, so less sanding.
