Sorry to Hi-jack but I am looking at doing the same thing on a Prindle 18 where the bottoms are worn thin. It's just worn through the gel coat I think and starting on the fiberglass. do I do the same thing with epoxy or do I need to layer on some fiberglass. I have never done this and have no clue but I am a do it yourself kind a guy and would really like to learn.

It there any step by step pages or books anyone knows about? What kind of sprayer can you spray on gel coat with? I have a spray gun that came with a compressor that I have never used. I would like to refinish/coat the entire hull as the current gel coat is pretty dull and faded.

I also may want to custom paint some with an airbrush but am not sure what paint to use for that and was wondering you can then put a clear gel coat finish over that?
