Kind Regards The Fibreglass King Unfortunately GC50 is no longer softened by acetone once cured, so wiping won't give you a tacky surface. Carbon Copies Ltd

I coated my mould With The GC50 gelcoat and it cured to much for me so ther was no tack in it to make The carbonfibre stick to The mould. Is it possible to use spray glue instead, when The gelcoat has cured too long?
