just a quick question regarding the above, what kind of filler material is best to use with these materials to help stop shrinking? or at least keep it to a minimum? 

also is it worth using a polyester tooling gelcoat as oposed to a normal gel coat?

polyester will shrink more than any other resin !! i use a vynilester resin which next to nothing and quite cheap compare to epoxy gel coat
