If you are only worried about the way it looks, then don't. No matter what you cover your "rub marks" with will be gone after beaching the boat once or twice. If your keels are really worn you'll need to do a bottom job. Search the forum or FAQ here for many discussions about this.

Use gelcoat after doing a polyester repair. This may help, of course you can brush gel with great success.
