i been on this site for awhile and noticed you seem to have your mind wrapped around this gelcoat stuff so i wanted to pick your brain on a small gelcoat project i'm tackling in the next week or so. picked up the color match gelcoat from lilly-ram for my all red 89 hallett 240. the rash/damage is in the typical places from the OG owner beaching at mead all in the keel area. my plan is to scuff/prep areas by hand with some 450-600 or maybe lighter grit,wipe down with acetone, and using the "ROLL N TIP" method to get the gelcoat laid out wet sand put a buff on it. i plan to use 2 coats...is there any tips/techniques or advise that would help me put? prep work? mix ratio? thanks in advance:thumbsup
