Getting close to sanding all the paint off all surfaces. The gutters have posed quite the challenge and solved only with time and elbow grease. Have about a 4 foot section left and those will be done. Only remaining surface is the baitwell.
I did have a question though, in some spots, I sanded to the fiberglass. Before painting with Awlgrip, do I need to rebuild the gelcoat layer back up to original thickness? Otherwise, I would be painting directly over the fiberglass. Or should I fair the low spots and then paint?
Second question, what are some good recommendations on fairing compounds? A coworker suggested Quick Fair which has a lot of good reviews.
Thanks,
