Fibreglass cloth is great for getting a nice smooth shape on compound
curves.  I use it with normal resin, but maybe Por-15 would work fine.  The
stuff about the thickness of a handkerchief is particularly useful as it is
strong and thin, and you can hide it under paint with a thin skim of bondo
(or maybe a coat of Por-15).  Of course, you could use body solder on a weld
repair, but that's a bit wasted on a non-structural out of sight mend.

If you want more strength, the thicker mat is better, but needs more hiding.
