If you're correcting, just draw a line through and initial it. Don't use whiteout because some might feel that you are covering up (literal and figurative) mistakes or embellishing.
This is true in the military and for many official forms, but it's debatable for a logbook. I use whiteout because I want my logbook to be clearly readable, not confusing, and somewhat neat. Nobody is going to think that a small correction for a math error is fraudulent.
