It is a primer we apply on it as a post operations.
Smooth parts are most aftermarket parts that are made using an in-mold gelcoat. Looks great when you open the box, but mostly used to hide potential issues in the Fiberglass.
Here is some info on our process

We RTM Mold each panel, no gelcoat. Inspect each panel so we can see the substrate. Then sand, prime, block and re-prime once again.
My susgestion is to simply final sand the part using a small block. Just dont break trhough our primer, otherwise you'll need to re-prime it. You can start with a quick 200 grit sand paper to break the orange peal, and work your way up to a 800 grit finish, or what ever specs your paint is calling for.
