Is there a different way?
I dont wanna half to cut out and patch 1/4 of the bed because of suface rust and I dont think high build primer would do the trick.
So glass based media for blasting body panels, frame, etc?

take some close ups of this surface rust, if it is indeed surface and not pitted than you do not need bondo if it is deeply pitted than cut it out and put some new metal in there if you want it done right.
Pics are key when asking questions, it helps everyone here who is trying to answer a better idea whats going on.
did you get this bondo?
if so return it and get a better product like evercoat its worth the extra cash
