Since i'm just a beginner, I don't want to be wasting materials such as gelcoat when I practice...and do parts made without gelcoat have the same quality as ones made with gelcoat? Thanks Edited 11 Years Ago by mbntng291

I asked this because don't have the necessary tools needed to polish/paint the car parts I want to copy. Thanks for the responses guys!
