Curious if you added something to help the gel coat self flatten, patch aid, Duratec Hi Gloss, etc.? Doing my transom outside, floor and inside hull sides only so I'm curious how it worked out for you.

the problem is doing the outside transom is its not laying flat and i think if i add somthing to thin it it will defintly run if rolled on, im trying to get what i need to spray it for now, or im just going to have to keep rolling and sanding untill its thick enough.
