The first two days will be led by RUPES, focusing on hands-on gelcoat correction and refinement techniques where students will learn the differences between gelcoat and paint, how to sand gel coat to remove oxidation and defects by sanding, and using rotary, gear-driven, and random orbital polishers to restore gloss. The final two days will be hosted by Gtechniq Marine, dedicated to surface protection and the application of advanced marine coatings.
