Don't worry Jake - I'm not picking nits with you whatsoever or trying to call you out. You did me such a solid favor on that repair that I couldn't ever hope to repay you. You still cutting hull vinyl? I might need to cover up these scabs with something more easy to apply than paint or gelcoat. As far as I can see it, the ONLY way that I'm going to ever get a like new finish on this thing is if I either paint the whole damn thing (adding more weight) or grind every bit of gelcoat off the thing and respray it - and given the revelations you made earlier in the thread about gelcoat not being meant as a paint, I think that I'm pretty screwed.
no offense taken...I learn from every project.
I honestly think you are over thinking this. Just removing the mildew might make a pretty solid improvement. ;-)
It seems that the duratec repair (although clearly chipped but not a fault of the duratec) is still pretty glossy...is that the case?
Decals are not a problem...our graphics shop has improved and grown and our newly created 900 sqft is getting small already.
