fix-it-all (joint compound with some additives) is not suitable for exterior at allYes it will wick in water as the paint deteriorates, and cause more rot, and keeping a good coat of paint on it won't be enough long-term in many/most climates.bondo (polyester auto body resin) is a cheap-ish "alternative", although harder to get detail work just right and not really all that suitable anyway (maybe ok with a good epoxy / primer, perhaps?).

My cousin found a property in Georgia (a little fixer upper).

You find a fixer-upper to Rent until you Sell and just move into the Rental to do it again. 

But I bet that cool Smurf Blue body paint you have costs plenty. 

Engage with local officers to gather insights about the neighborhood, and don't hesitate to ask them specific questions about the property.When touring, pay attention to tonality, body language, and hidden cues from sellers.

During that time you find a fixer-upper to Rent.

It also has a large flat upper roof area, although not sure if it could be used for something or not.
