Hello.
Do you have any recommendations or advise or ideas how to repair it? I have two spots like that on my pop up roof.

The pop top is made of laminated fiberglass.

This is fairly easy to repair. You can find instructions on youtube.

Use polyester fibre filler, that is a filler that has fibres mixed into the filler. First degrease then sand around the hole with a rough grit paper , then apply filler. Sand smooth then paint. Looking at the pick there are signs of osmosis blisters but no big deal.
