Title kinda sums it up..


Just wondering if what I have is paint or gel before I start researching polishing techniques..

If the surface is very smooth you most likely have gel coat. Paint will leave a bit of an edge where it was taped off.

not if it was cleared over , she'll be smooth as a babys bottum ..Cale all them EDock boyz up there and none can eyeball and tell the diff ???

Regardless of the finish the polishing tecniques are similar. The condition of the finish will determine the necessary steps required to achieve optimal results.

Use a paint thickness meter, any good body shop should be able to help you without having to buy one.

whats better paint or gel
