I don't like thick layers of filler (anykind) without a fiberglass over lay. Can chip off.
 
Here are some photos of my approach using Pour-foam. It sands easily and then a layer of fiberglass makes it strong.

   Rusty, there are plenty of things that will do the job.  I had a similar problem and couldn't wait to order the light weight stuff from aircraft spruce, so I got a can of stuff from an auto body shop supply house.  I forget the name but its a polyester resin with fiberglass strands in it for extra strength.  Its a bit on the heavy side, but your not going to use that much. 
 
 I forget the name, but all the guys that use it call it "gorrilla Snot", when you open the can you'll understand why.  Its made by "EverCoat".
