All my experience with painting fibreglass is DON;T. The wax in the gelcoat (even if it's primer gelcoat) discolours the paint, turning white into grey. Even after primer and acrylic lacquer. That could be just me however.

We used it with their adhesion primer and it made a pretty good job of a very old body, paint stuck really well and has been on about 3 years, car is not molly coddled and is used mostly around local lanes and a little bit. off road
There are loads of pics inthe photoi bucket album below - checkout file called Ninja

Use International Yacht Paint.

Designed to be roller painted onto fibreglass, it's 2K paint, so maybe not so sure about spraying it. I used a fume mask while rolling, but the info just suggest a dust mask.
