It's been a while since I worked on one but I don't recall them being factory painted, i.e. color was in the gel coat, but others may know better.
I believe you are correct, this one just has a layer of paint over the Gel Coat from a previous restoration. I tried paint stripper, but it was taking to much effort, I was afraid to damage the surface. The Marykate worked well for cleaning everything, but did not remove the paint. I'll give the heat gun a try for the decals.
