Default Gelcoat repair

Jim Phoenix reads RAS from time to time, so I'll try not to tell any
lies. I corresponded with him quite some time ago, about the time I
was re-finishing a small portion of my fuselage with gelcoat.
Regarding the gelcoat vs poly, I'm pretty sure he said if he had it
to do over again, he wouldn't gelcoat, he'd shoot polyurethane.

Is that polly paint, or something else you are talking about? What polly
product builds as thick as jell coat?

I'm still trying to learn about the glass and more exotic composites. I'm a
wood or metal kinda' guy!
