I am planning on refinishing some small areas of gelcoat around the portlights where there is some crazing/flaking. In a few spots there is exposed underlying glass fabric. I had planned to build these areas up with polyester resin before applying gelcoat. One of the guys at jamestown distributors suggested that I use epoxy as a base in these areas prior to applying gelcoat. He said if I used polyester resin it might not adhere to the underlying laminate. However, I have read (don casey) that gelcoat doesnt adhere to epoxy as well as polyester, so I don't know how to proceed. Can anyone offer any advice?
