Thanks for the replies. I really don't want to do any major body prep as it may lead to issues when a professional painter comes along at a later stage.

Unfortunately vinyl wrap isn't a long term option for me as it doesn't come in the colour that I've finally settled on. FINALLY!

So if I need a shiny or sealed surface for vinyl wrap I guess I need to see whether I can polish the gelcoat as it has dulled over the years. Something similar to boat hulls?
