Benefits: It is a popular material to use when restoring shine to older fiberglass. No wax gelcoat is used when multiple layers of coats are used on a single task. This speeds up the process. However, the last gelcoat must have wax. The non-wax gelcoat will remain sticky until the wax is added. These have to be filled up several times, as the material is subject to shrinkage during curing. High-quality products are usually slightly cheaper especially when purchased in larger quantities. Get Professional maintenance, ideal with polishing, coloring and as sealant. Buff and polish your new gel coat to a professional-looking finish.
