2 coats gelcoat with 1/3 duratec, 2nd coat wax.  They say you don’t have to wax with duratec but I have mixed results snd it doesn’t hurt anything. Going to let it set up a few days then wet sand. In the mean time I’ll get on some teak work.

Sweet!!

Glad you said that. Just about to go out and get started on the top coat. I was thinking about that as well. I’m going to thin it out with styrene just to make sure also I may need to use a roller pan. Can’t pour and roll if I want to stay thin. Thanks for calling this out I appreciate it.

Tan gelcoat with anti skid.
It was a warm one today. 90 in the boat. Working time was at a minimum. I iced down the whole gallon of gel coat to buy time. Luckily it was just enough




Relied on my new “must use go to” tool for proper mixing. After the transom cap error I leave nothing to chance. THANKS RICK for the suggestion!!!!



Applied the gel coat with a roller then sprinkled the anti skid. Did not expect the gel coat and the anti skid to be the EXACT same color so I have no idea on coverage. I taped off all but two holes on the anti skid shaker so I had somewhat of a controlled sprinkle. At least you won’t be able to see if I went to light or too heavy. I think it will be okay. Going to let this kick off well then hit it again with a waxed coat. I used about 1500 ml of gel coat 500ml at a time.
