Ive used it for screw holes works great lasts forever.
Might look a little flat if used in a larger chip.

Stuff is great...Used it like bondo on one spot to repair and regel and had a little discoloration and trouble sanding. Once this stuff sets up it ain't going anywhere though

I'm pretty sure you can't use gel coat over it.
