Material: Sprayed Gelcoat

Does anyone have experience spraying gelcoat when repairing large areas of fiberglass kayaks? We've been having problems with orange peel finishes and have tried thinning the gelcoat, which seems to help the problem, but it takes a lot of thinning to the point that we are having problems with runs.
