2 layers of 450g Chopped strand 

As you can see there is some blemish marks and some of the gelcoat let the resin bleed through and make a patch but its still smooth so wont cause any issue.

Got some bits to fill in and smooth as the leather texture is clearly visible as i had expected.

In the tutorials it talks about a wax additive you add to gelcoat so it cures solid, What kind of wax additive is it ?

Even though there is some noticeable defects im quite happy with it
