Default Which filler to use?

Got to cut out and glass in a new cleat backing block do to leaking screws. . Using 3/4” marine plywood and WS epoxy I have. Do I use a high density filler to bed the block in or can I use a general filler such as colloidol silica? I want to use the filler to also fillet the block around the edges for the glass to lay over smooth. Have read the WS 404 isn’t for filleting. Looking for a 1 item does both of possible for this 1 single repair. Thanks

yes, bond in with WS high density i think its 404 and it will be fine for the fillets as well. 404 would not be good for fillets on finish work but if your glassing over its good.
