Question:

i have an aluminum awning thats powdercoatedi need to move the mounting brackets but as soon as i do the screw holes will be showinghow do i effectively cover those up without replacing the pieces that have holes in them? time is of the essence.

Answer:

I used to buy some stuff called liquid aluminumIn comes in a tube, and is about the consistency of thick toothpaste, but hardens into aluminumIt was good for filling small holes in metalI assume they still make it, although I haven't bought any for several yearsCheck home improvement and hardware stores.
