I got to playing around with a few areas that are chipped/gouged through to the fiberglass. I was using a die grinder with 80-100 grit on it and it very quickly removed paint down to fg. So fast that I am thinking that that there is no color gelcoat. When I went down to the fg it seemed to be smooth below the paint. Would the manufacturer have not used gelcoat? This is a 1971 boat. So if I sand the entire boat and this thin layer of paint/gelcoat comes off, Will this present any problems when I go to prime and paint? Or am I going to have to regelcoat the boat? This will be a trailered boat. I am just curious about how thin the paint/gelcoat is.
