I usually use somewhere around 80+/- grit. It all really depends on what you are covering. Either way it will hide the scratches. It needs something to bite into.
I wouldn't recomend using Bondo, I use Evercoat products. Very good quality stuff.

I don't sand epoxy.

I usually lay 2 coats of high build, sand that and then do my filler work so I know where all the high/low spots are...

That's what I normally do. I shoot the epoxy over 80 grit sanding though.
