Default Cockpit Cover Snap / Screw Holes

I have had a snap on cockpit cover on my boat and have hated it forever. I like the functionality of it but the ugly snaps that are very noticable. Kinda like bullet holes going down the side of the boat. In my opinion it really messes up the lines of the boat.


I took out the snap/screws and now have to figure out how or what to do with the holes. The snap/screws go over a couple of different colors and the gel would need to be matched.

How well can gel colors be matched on a 10 year old boat?

They can be matched perfectly it takes time and experience with tints.
