In the car world I'd recommend a foam polishing pad, but gel-coat, which is pigmented polyester resin is a different animal all together. It tends to really like wool pads on rotary buffers at high speeds the best when it comes to cutting and polishing for maximum gloss.

When using a dual action polisher, for the polishing step with cleaner/wax or AIO I'd go with a thin Purple Foamed Wool Pad.

Hang tight, let me get a picture...
