Re: need advice on paint, gelcoat, duratec
Depending on how much orange peel there is on the gel coat after you've sprayed it, you may end up sanding 10 or 15 mils off to get it smooth again. Plus its very common to sand through if its thinner and then you need re-spray some areas.
Also you typically need at least 10 mils left for it to hide the color of what's under it.
Did you read the hull extension thread yet? Its required before starting this project.
