Scott,

  I'd be very interested in the name.  When I did mine, I used dyna-glass 
and worked it in with a drill bit to get the concave effect.  Then topped it
off with some bondo and the drill bit again.  I probably should have used
seam sealer.  I still have to do the rear panel to quarter panels.

How do you grind the old stuff out?

The best tip I've heard on this is to use a hack saw blade and carfully work
/cut the old stuff out.
