Clean the surface really good with a degreaser, THEN sand it with some rough grit (36 to 80 grit) so the filler has something to grab on to. Then lay on the filler. Try to feather it out as far past the dent as possible, and the edge of the filler you should be able to see through the filler (after sanding). Use a good urethane filler. I like Evercoat's Polyflex, I got it at that paint supply shop on LaSalle just off the Circle. It's not cheap, but it's easier to work with than cheap Bondo and doesn't air pocket as badly.
wanna help me put my front struts/new springs on sometime?
