Not at all.
But you COULD say that gelcoat is nothing but laminating resin with WAX
added...

No. Commercial gelcoat does *NOT* contain wax as it would impair the bond
to the laminating resin in the layup being applied to the gelcoat in the
mold. Flocoat contains wax for a non-tacky surface cure. Some entry
level gelcoat repair kits contain wax, but if you are serious, you either
seal polythene sheet over the repair to exclude air or use wax in styrene
additive.

Ayup.
