That's why you need an orbital sander :|

No good for stuff like hoodscoops, too many acute bends.

P.S. I love the smell of Bondo, brings back lots of good memories of late nights in the shop.

they make special steel files that cut down fiberglass/bondo to get the general shape, so that makes for less sanding.

Are you using sanding blocks? If not, you should, or your going to get a very uneven surface

You were eating to much then. Try smaller portions.
