Hi Mike.

Just to add to your question above, right now my car is also in gel coat. Why? Too impatient to get it registered and going as much as anything. Plus I wanted to run it for a bit and see if I wanted to change anything as well before I painted it. For example I am considering adding some vents to the bonnet to let some engine heat out. That sort of thing.

That all said, the FFR gel coat is only OK as a 50' finish. Ie, it looks ok from 50' away. I plan on looking to the painting prolly next year some time, after the new house is built. The Pace gel coat does look a lot better, but it is also a much more expensive kit.
