Ended up on coat #4, and some water dripped out of the gel coat. Checked and a section flaked off. So sanded the spot back down, put a 500 watt flood light on it, and waiting for it to dry out fully, THEN do coat #5. I HATE FIBERGLASS WORK!

Just learned a new trick. If you get teh fiberglass good and hot with a halogen lamp. leave it on while you put the gel coat down, you can build it up in layers very quickly. I found it took about 2 minutes to skin over with the light on it, and I was able to brush on a layer, smooth it over with a flat paddle, let it skin in about 2 minutes, and repeat about 4 times before what was in my cup bagan to harden. Got the spot all taken care of it looks like, so should be good to go for Thursday.
