You know some days it does not pay to try and be nice.

He bought "Gel Coat" sprayed it according to the directions.
I already said he sanded and polished, thanks for the repeat.

I already agreed Joy needs paint and not "gell coat".
I was just trying to point out that you can "gell coat" outside of a mold.

Sorry I tried to clarify what is possible.
