Re "Drill a very small hole through the existing pulled out screw locations to daylight on the other side" - nocando - there is no "other side" - only the interior of the camper which is inaccessible. I will drill out the hole but there is no "other side".
There is another side, but you won't be able to see it. You will be able to feel when you hit air though, with a sensitive hand on the drill. The problem with attempting to fill blind holes with epoxy is that air gets trapped and pushes the epoxy back out, or gets mixed forming bubbles. If the hole is large enough, you can put a small tube on a syringe or caulking tube, push the tube to the bottom of the hole, and fill as you back out, displacing the air. But that is difficult in a small hole, and Six10 is thick enough to be very hard to pump through a small tube. Attempting to trowel it in, or push it down the hole with a stick is very messy and the results are suspect.
I have done this - a lot - on cored boat hulls.
