Spraying Gel - 9:1 vs 13/15:1 - Possible???

Curious if anyone has sprayed gel with a 9:1 system with any luck? I know 13 or 15:1 is preferred but just curious if it would work out ok in a pinch for one project while I sort out a new replacement for a gel-specific option. This would be sprayed into a mold for a mid-sized boat, not a repair. Thoughts?

Also if you had to choose between 9:1 spray system or pressure pot (pre-mix) which route would you choose? Thanks!

 

It can be used with good results, but your tip size needs to be reduced and your ability to keep a wet edge comes into play.

What is a mid-sized boat in your view?

 

Boat is 28’ so quite a mold to consider using a pressure pot on so I’m leaning towards the 9:1 system. Just arrived so going to try some small parts first.

was looking for feedback on anyone that’s used the 9:1 with gel and had success.

 

Keeping the gel coat warm will help a great deal. I used an 11:1 on parts that size with excellent results, but I used an inline heater most of the time.
