Gel Coat reactions

[Leon01323]

Hey tunnels... ive been using pva alot to break my moulds in but i always do it till i can see it and i have a blue film i can then pull off afterwards...

As you say should i mix mine with water and spray it on then? the only problem i can see is what if i miss a bit and not being about to see the coat it would be hard to tell?

spray then dry and the gel coat?

Thanks

Yeah but itS all in the way you do it , Max air and start one end and visulize your spray pattern , Like Luke said" LET THE FORCE BE WITH YOU !!"Been doing for 20 or more years never failed me yet !!If you look very closely immediatly after you sprayed you can see a very slight wet shiney look but only just . Once its dried you cant see a thing . Remember DONT PUT YOU FINGERS ON IT !!!!

Sounds like a good plan. I know it's asking alot from you tunnel but do you recan you could write me a quick guide and mixing the Pva with the water etc. Only if you get the chance would really help me out.

Thanks

Hi Tunnels, your advise is always interesting, but is not always easy to understand you ( to say the least ) maybe due to the fact english is not my native language but it could well be that the same happens to you or indeed any other reason but I always find your english "formulation" difficult to understand .. which is a shame
