Forgive my inexperience, but I'm about to fill in two instrument holes in the cabin house and I'm wondering about applying gel coat over epoxy. I've heard gel coat doesn't bond well to epoxy, but I also seem to remember hearing/reading that it will if the surface is properly prepared. Any tips or resources I should read to find the answer to this?
Thanks,
David

Re: Gel coat over epoxy
Go to www.gougeonbros.com. They give a good argument that gel coat over epoxy is no problem.
