[Paddlewise] coat (of many colours?)

I do not believe that gelcoat is the material of choice for recoating a
boat.  The property of gelcoat that endears it to boatbuilders is its
ability to build thick and closely follow the mold.

Most big boat people refinishing their topsides and deck opt for a
two-part polyurethane applied over high-build primer coats.  Brushable
versions are available.  Colors can be very bright and the finishes are
super glossy.
