It took us approx. 5 weeks then another two weeks to wet sand and buff.
Laying on the creeper with a 8000 lb boat above you sanding the gel coat was real fun.
Sanded the boat then primed. then sanded the primer .
then sealed the boat. Applied the colors. Clear coated. then wet sanded.
We set up sheet rock staging (wheels on it ) with planks laying across the top so we could stand on it while another guy pushed him as he was spraying.
