Only thing I didn't care for was the gel coat is to thick to use in a gelcoat gun. Brush it on or roll it on it's probably OK but its to thick to spray on.

Putting a new clear coat on an 1979 28 ft slickcraft so far so good getting good results plan on putting a few more thin coats to get the effect I'm looking for .

The consistency of this gelcoat is very thin. I had to used a fairing product to cover a superficial scratch on my gelcoat

New to fiberglass and boat repair, I had no idea what I was doing. The Gelcoat worked better than I had imagined and the repair turned out better than I thought it woruld. The next time I have to do some repairs, I will probably re-surface the entire boat.

Final topcoat product. I did not know this when I bought it, so after first application I sanded it down to get a good bonding surface for the gelcoat without wax, and put on 3 layers. Final coat was the gelcoat with wax. Since my objective was to protect the bottom of a kayak and learn about fiberglass and gelcoats for the future I sanded the areas above the waterline smooth and left the heavier bottom with brush strokes.

The product is good, the guidance is poor. I have a PWC (Seadoo) that needed its bottom restored. I decided it needed new gelcoat. After watching several YouTube clips on how to apply and finish gelcoat I decided I could do this. I have experience spraying cars and trucks. I spoke with the sale lady and explained I needed to cover about 30 square feet with black gelcoat. She explained the prep steps, how to roll on the gelcoat and how to sand it down before applying the second or third coats. The sanding was necessary because she sold me a gallon of gelcoat with wax. I thought a gallon was overkill based on auto painting but I assumed she knew what she was doing. Also, rolling is a bad idea because it leaves it not with orange peal but grapefruit peal and it takes forever to sand it down due to the various contours of the surface. I could use my mechanical sanders on about half of the hull. After the first rolled coat I sprayed the next coats with great success. It does not level well and still needs sanding but nothing like the roller. Later when I asked why she didn't recommend the first coats using gelcoat without wax she explained that they didn't sell black gelcoat without wax and assumed I could sand it down for the subsequent coats. She should have warned me that would be really hard. After 10 minutes to spray a coat it took a couple days to sand it down for the next coat or for the finish polishing. In the end, the bottom came out looking almost new but it took 10 times longer to do than I expected. My recommendation: If you need multiple coats then do the undercoats without wax then finish off with wax. Furthermore, she sold me a whole gallon and I only used a little over a quart. Anyone want some black gelcoat with wax?

Worked great, color was way to white for my project, but will work for my 1992 Snugtop truck camper. Thank You

I have applied this gel coat to my 14 ft sailboat and am happy with the results.

I use this to repair my boat. End product looks good. More on what I wonder. The first quart works fine. I don't use it all at once, but rather a little bit at a time. By the end of the quart, the gel coat get a little more concentrated, still works fine. This was in hot summer. On the second quart I ordered in the cold weather, the first batch is fine. Second batch get a lot more concentrated only roughly 2 weeks after the first time opened.

Works very well. I mixed too much (12 oz) the first batch and it hardened before I could finish rolling it out. After that I stuck to 6 oz batches & a few drops less of hardener.

I've been working on a particularly difficult kayak repair in fiberglas. Its difficult because none of the surfaces are flat and all are curved, bending, tilted, etc. I've used and removed three different gelcoats before arriving at Total Boat gel coat, neutral. With a bit of tint we got close to the original, the application was by brush and the product thick enough to avoid pooling and running. Good stuff. Just reordered.

Made a flawless repair to the keel of my boat. Worked better than the other two brands I tried.

For some reason some ( where used to be holes ) spots would not dried. So I was able to wipe down gelcoat after two days sitting in 70 degree garage See pictures.

I dented my swim platform and after filling and fairing it was time for Gelcoat. This product sticks and stays to an almost vertical surface. Dries hard and sands with wet dry sandpaper to a smooth finish. Matching the color is the hardest part.

My only regret was ordering paint with the wax mixed in the paint. The first coat didn't go on thick enough. Because the paint had wax in it I had to sand it with 80 grade, de wax and paint again. It all turned out well in the end. I could have saved time by using untaxed for the first coat and added wax in for the second.

I used it in the bottom of a bathtub that had worn areas and it worked great. I thickened it with silica powder and used a short nap roller. Masking neatly and removing the masking tape while still wet is important. I had to add some color to match. I have used this on boat decks before.

I used the white Gelcoat to cover some exposed fiberglass. The Gelcoat went on easy with a foam roller and a brush. I feel the results were smother with a brush but both required a little sanding to make fully smooth. Over all great product, easy to use, and great results.

The product went on very easily. It was quite thin so I don't know how it work on a vertical surface. My surface was horizontal.

Used it on the hull of the Hobie and would use it again on any project that needed water proofed or strengthen .

First, the packing and shipping of the Total Boat products is great--well packed and shipped quickly. The Gelcoat goes on easy and smooths out very well. I was forced to apply in less than ideal temps ( 47-55 degrees) and it cured out fine--a bit slower on the shady side.

Purchased a couple of Quarts with Wax & White and was very pleased how this hardened on Boston Whaler. Not having luck with sprayer (inexperience), I ended up brushing and later sanding to a smooth finish. Buffed with Star Brite wax.

I used this Gel Coat in an acrylic swim spa repair. It was easy to work with and the results were awesome. I have a couple of boat projects I will use it on next.

My first gel coat repair and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. The white was a good match to the seadoo white. Thanks.

Followed the directions. Worked great!

This is a nice bright white gelcoat. I have applied it with brush, roller, and preval Disposable spray when repairing various cracks, holes and breaks in our youth sailing fleet of boats- happy with the gelcoat! I'm not a pro - here's a pic of a C420 bow that rammed the dock head-on one too many times... glassed with JD Polyester laminating resin and topped using JD Gelcoat right out of the can -without and coloring agents... please judge the gelcoat ...not my repair job :)

I use this product cover a sail boat rudder that was damage

Used it on pool step repair. Perfect and super quick shipping.

The finish is rock hard. I only mixed up 20 ounces at a time. I used the 3M Accuspray gun with a 2.0 nozzle thinned with Styrene 10%

I used the total boat poly laminating resin and glassed in a block to mount an anchor winch. Poly resin does not cure by itself. I used the gel coat with wax as a final layer. Keeping in mind I live in Tulsa Ok and it is summer here. That said I used a bit less mekp than it called for (about 3 drops less per oz). I put down two coats lightly sanding between and had absolutely no issues. I also used the liquid tint and was able to color match and fade with no problems using a foam hotdog roller. This was my first time working with fiberglass and gel coat. Seeing as it's pretty easy to work with. I'll do the interior of the boat next. My suggestion. Read the instructions. It clearly states X amount of drops per oz at X temp. Adjust accordingly and make sure the surface is correctly prepped.

The product is great the packaging needs to be changed very hard to pour maybe a pump or easy pour bottle don't know can sucks to work with And it leaked all over in shipping very messy not happy at all I was going to send it back but I needed it will not happen again next time it Will go back I if it comes like that again!!!!!!!
