Jordan,

You could try to use the technique which is used by classics car restorers. In stead of filling oneven areas with a epoxy filler of some sort, they use Lead/Tin to flatten the surface. The Lead/Tin mix is available in bars which can be "easily" melt with a torch. You can then use it as a "normal" (but hot!) filler using tools made of wood to spread the stuff. After cooling down you can grind and send the stuff.

I still want to try the technique on my own car, so I have no experience with it yet.

regards,

Alex
