It'll go off sufficiently in atmosphere without the wax, you might just have to wipe the very top with some acetone (though I've not needed to yet, as I've been deliberately using a bit too much catalyst).
A friend of mine used to work for Sunseeker powerboats, and is a dab hand with gel coat / polyester resin / glass.
He said for repairs (which is all I've been concerned with), you shouldn't use any wax (as it may adversely affect the colour), and use plenty (read excess) of catalyst to ensure enough heat is generated to make the gel coat go off.
