Ok so I pulled the top off yesterday and got a good look at it. There are a couple of places where, for lack of the correct term, the gelcoat is cracking and flaking leaving the fiberglass exposed. Are there any products that can be used to repair this? What have all the guru's used, and how well did it work. How hard is it to do? And what are the temperature requirements for curing?

I will be painting the rig within the next year or so, and really want to make it look good, not show quality but good. The beast will never be a show winner or mall crawler, but I still want to make it look decent, and remove all the rust that Utah salt causes, and that will mean paint after all the steel is replaced.
 
Ok so for Ryoken here are the pics of some of the damage to the top. Let me know what you think...
