Hi all!
I am new in this forum and also in Fiberglass part making!
Today I did apply first time gel coat on my project hood! and gel coat did wrinkle up in some areas!
Hood is clear coated, polished and waxed many times with easycomposites.co.uk mold release wax.
Gel coat is mixed with 2%
of hardener!

The gel coat has attacked,reacted with the clear coat I've had it once I put it down to not leaving the clear coat long enough to cure before applying release agents.
