What would you suggest as the very easiest, hopefully no mix anything, way to fill in/cover up little 1/4" nicks in an old white gel coat. Not concerned about looks, just patching the little nicks.

Wash em out with Acetone Fill em with PC-11 It's white!!! But... You do have to mix it. Part A - Part B equal parts...Takes about a Minute!!!!! Spread it on with a plastic Putty Knife. Done!!! Get it @ Home Depot!!!

The easiest way is to take it to a shop and pay someone else to do it for you. Any thing other than that means you're going to actually do physical labor and mix, spread, and sand the filler.

LOL, so much literal truth yet so little tact!!! I have a friend that is like you in so many ways, Jig. He is misunderstood by many but that's why I like him so much! He always calls them like he sees it. I vote for white electrical tape. :lol:
