Bumper Covers, Repair Advice needed

I bought 1 Front Bumper Cover from Pick ur Parts and 1 rear bumper cover from Ecology, came out to 90$ dollars!!!! some bull **** and they werent even in perfect condition.. but the best ones I could find... anyway I started sanding and primering these covers and I got frusterated and used a power disc sander on both the bumper covers.. and yes I messed them up it got too hot and now I have small wavy grooves (Using this DISC SANDER )
Now I read the plastic repair topic but that isnt working out for me...Im planning to use this EPOXY material, has anyone made the mistake Iv'e done and tried fixing it with this epoxy material? and if so how well did the repair work ?

ive used that paint stripper on mine and came out fine you just has to be careful and keep it moving.but if you already have grooves in your plastic depending on how deep they are just use filler primer or you can fill in the scratches with a thing called icing or they have special bondo for plastics you mix two things together it stinks like rotten ***,but it works really well
