Default Cobra Cosmetics II: How to Refinish?

My friend who repainted the top of his fiberglass top
Cobra says he used polyurethane white deck paint from
'Boater's World.' And he used a roller to apply it.

An amazing (to me) amount of interest in refreshing

glass-top
Cobra has a few cracks, nicks, etc., that will require
work this
winter. Matching the existing gel coat looks tough.
And I'd rather save
my refinishing money for the glider itself some day.
So what's been the
experience repairing/refinishing/painting German glass-top
trailers?
