Depending on how low the low spots are, The best thing to use is a stick slurry
of micro and resin. Don't go to thick just fill the low spots. Then use the
stuff Mark Jones talked about icing to feather out any small areas

the article suggests laying on a coat of black primer before filling, to help
visualize the topography during sanding. ?
iller, no?

Like Jeff mentioned, using your epoxy sytem and microspheres will give you the
lightest and cheapes filler available. Do not fill the low spots untill you
are ready to fill the whole elevator. Do it in one operation if possible.
Then you can sing the sanding song while sanding.

I've sanded down what I can, but some are too low to sand out

What do you guys use for filling/fairing compound, for this sort of thing?
