Gelcoat adhesion to canopy problem

Good feedback so far. *Just to clarify: I'm just trying to do spot

spraying makes sense. *Getting sandpaper into the spot is difficult
because some areas are no wider than they are deep, and you have to be

directly adjacent.

The chips are the full thickness / single layer of gel. *It is about
as thick as 2-3 pieces of paper.

Maybe I should consider next year having it all stripped down, all the
gel removed and a totally redone, right now I just need to get patched
for the spring.

If I put primer on the plexiglass, would gelcoat adhere to a layer of
paint primer?

Just put some tape over it.
