here's a link to my post, it has a bunch of pics and stuff...
basically you cut out the rusted areas, I used an angle grinder with a cutoff wheel, and you weld in new sheet metal...

then you topcoat with POR-15 and primer and paint.

Except that 'glassing over the rust will not stop it... your rust will return in months. You need to remove the affected metal, and that around it to stop it from spreading. You can then repair it with 'glass, but I would weld in new metal if at all possible. Then you need to seal all the metal off with something like Por15, or a good urethane primer at the least.

You can now also purchase rear 1/4 panel replacement pieces?

I know they make them for the 4th gen Civic hatch, so depending how bad your rust is on the CRX, the civic ones should suffice.
