What are the challenges that one should keep in mind, when the idea of covering a deck, or a hull, or coaming with Gelcoat? I’ve been warned off it by pretty much everyone I’ve asked. I was planning on going the primer/paint route for both my boats, deck and hulls, but I’m still thinking it would be nice to do a legit new gelcoat resurfacing. What are the reasons why I should not use gelcoat, and if I do try it out, what should I be prepared to deal with?
