Cutting out metal and welding in new stuff, I asume. Beat it as close as possible and use a quality filler. Either plastic or metal type. You should only need a slight skim to even things up.

if your gunna use bondo use the fibreglass ones they are waterproof and is tough unlike regular bondo. The downside is takes really long to sand but is worth it when your done

Go to a good body shop supply store. You can get adhesives (2 part epoxies) that are as strong as a weld. You can use them in spots where it is not structural. Attach the new metal with the epoxy and a couple of screws or rivets to hold it in place while it sets. Then just use enough filler to finish.

You can use the stranded 'glass as it covers a hole better, but it will likely just fall out as more rust appears later.

after the first coat of primer, check for imperfections, if none, then lightly sand the primer with 600 grit until smooth, then paint
