Re: Repairing deck gellcoat stress cracks

Wow! 1/4" thick! Yeah, shrinkage would be fantastic.

Love the Alajuela 38. Very nearly began with a bare hull I'd located.

Re: Repairing deck gellcoat stress cracks

min's right--true stress cracks should be sanded through the gelcoat and matted.

Re: Repairing deck gellcoat stress cracks

Negative on using 5200.

Negative on opening cracks up to 1" wide.

Yes on epoxy.

Overly thick gelcoat shrank from decades in FL sun.
