To be honest, I'd forget the idea of using the gelcoat as a surface tack. As brainfart mentioned, applying epoxy to an undercured polyester gelcoat is risky business, even if the gelcoat is formulated to work with epoxy. Normal practice is to allow the gelcoat to cure for 24 hours before infusing. Whilst it is possible to use the tack of the gelcoat to lay your fabrics and then allow it to cure fully before infusing, there actually isn't really a need. Spray adhesives applied lightly behind the gelcoat will not affect your surface finish, they will be invisible.
