Hi everyone

I’m hoping this is the correct place to post my query.

I purchased an item with a handle bar and would like to fill or cover the screw holes so it looks a bit nicer.

The handle is plastic and the colour is sort of beige. I had a look at a few YouTube videos and Google which suggested wood filler or using glue with baking soda, but I’m concerned using filler and sanding it down will be difficult and ruin the surrounding part of the handle. Also with the glue it may fill it but I couldn’t find any guidance on doing a colour match.

I’ve thought about filling the hole with blu tak then putting a small sticker over and using acrylic paint to colour match it but now I think that won’t look very good.

Any suggestions or guidance would be much appreciated.

I’ve attached some photos of the holes in question. Thank you

Anything wrong with a neat white (or coloured) circular sticker? Filling and sanding sounds a recipe for a poor finish.
