ajc1219:<br />What brand of gelcoat were you using?<br />Some brands now do not contain wax or need a cover or pva to harden.<br />Here's one:<br /> http://www.jamestowndistributors.co...BDISP.WOEB.MAIN&CLEV=5&PLEV=1&QLEV=1&PN=14409

Sounds like he needs to cover it with pva so it will cure. Question...will it cure now after sitting for days?? Let us know how you solve this, and if the under coats harden after being sealed with a new coat. I always shoot the pva while the last coat is fresh..I have never waited.
