As a kid, I used to use something like this with model airplanes. It may not be the right tool for the job but at least it's something to think about.
I would suggest lead solder if you could find a low melting point stick. At least that is what used to be used before bondo came around. Unfortunately birmabright does not play well with heat so this probably isn't a good choice either.
On my truck, the previous owner's bondo is flaking off in large quantities. I agree that it really isn't the right product because the aluminium is too flexy. Also, at least by looking at my truck, the bondo is shrinking. Perhaps if you have small holes no larger than a dime. Any bigger than a dime and I think your truck would start to look like mine given enough time.
