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!
