Spraying gelcoat is much more labor intensive than painting. With painting, after the application, you only wet sand between coats and the final application is what it is. With gel, after the application, to must remove the PVA, wet sand, buff and polish to a shine. Plus gelcoat is very succeptable to cracking if you apply it too thick. Then there's always the danger of sanding through and having to reapply. The roll and tip method of painting is much easier to achieve a top notch finish.
