Wow, remind me again why?

I choose to do my own stuff on my skis...lol..just finished taking off all the mats on 2 vx sports. decided to replace them, not sure yet if i will go back oem or hydro turf? suggestions??
.. but wow, 14 hours total on 2 skis to get all pads and most of the glue off!! THAT WAS A DIFFICULT JOB,very labor intense and tiring, hands sore, did i say sore, i mean sore!!! lol... but its pretty stripped bare now.. got a couple small chips under a mat thanks to a tool i used, cosemtic, but still need to find something to fill em in with or at least cover, a little marine epoxy paint do the trick??? there minor, but since its off might as well fix em... any quick simple suggestions for a pure cosmetic fix. Next time they may go to the shop for this work, it was brutal X2....

Marine-Tex for small chips in white hulls or under the pads. It is an epoxy filler that will bond well. I hate removing the pads but have found denatured alcohol work well at removing the glue.
