also make sure u use a sanding block to sand or wont be a good curve, just using hands wont work.
hope this helps

Try what tomo says, or if you want a proper job get it plastic welded.
edit: not saying that way won't work, not sure tbh. It would just be ideal if you could weld it.

You need to build it up more to lose the pits anyway. It's a weaker repair than if it were welded properly but doing it as you are just needs more filler. And shape it first with something coarse first before going for a finer finish. If you concentrate on smoothing the new patch you'll dig it again.
