For minor gashes in Royalex that go through the outer layer and exposing the white mid layer, I have done "color matched" cosmetic repairs by dissolving Lego blocks in acetone to form a slurry and then painting the slurry over the deep scratch or gouge. The resulting repair will dry and harden, and if you had picked the correct color or mix of colors of the Lego blocks, the repair will match the color of your boat. These repairs are a little brittle relative to the original Royalex. But if it cracks or pops off over time, it is very easy to mix up another batch of Lego slurry and repeat the repair. My repairs have lasted about 7 years now.
