Default Using Awlgrip

I have patched a number of drill holes and spider cracks on my 20 SF. It was completely painted with Awlgrip in about 2004.

After reading lots of posts and comments on CSC, I am now a bit fearful of using it even for some touch up work. I planned to mix a small amount at a time and brush it on over the filled and sanded patchwork.

Is it really that dangerous and hard to use? Is there another product that might be easier to use - not quite so deadly and can be used over the Awlgrip without any issues?

I have oyster white gelcoat that I used to spray some patch work on my previous boat. But I was spraying gelcoat on gelcoat, using those little self contained bottles with aerosol spray cans. Worked just fine for the patching purposes. Could I use a similar arrangement for the Awlgrip =- assuming I really do need to stick with the Awlgrip?

Any help would be appreciated. Right now I am fishing in a patchwork boat!!
