Default Texture on the bottom of a float?

Hello all,

To bring you up to speed, I'm done glassing my floats and am ready to paint them. A few days ago, I got to talking to a guy that works alot with fiberglass and high speed boats (real boats). But anyway, he was telling me that if I left the bottom of the floats "orange pealed" or slightly textured other than polished or "glass", that the floats would actually be faster and would release from the water easier. I'm just wondering if any of you know anything about this or would comment about it.

Thanks
