Mike,
I would use a product called Metal Glaze. It's a professional automotive
finish product. It is applied very thin and easy to sand. I believe it can
be applied to bare metal or to primered metal. BTDT. I would caution you to
mix it in very small batches and use VERY LITTLE catalist. It sets up very
fast, especially in warm or sunny climate.
