Ideally a planarary sander and p80 disk! That will get it quickly. A angle grinder would work but risk causing other damage to the panel! But chisel is not a gd move! May aswell take it out while ur at it!

geta soft pad disc on a grinder this will remove all the old filler a lot quicker than a p80 disc takign the panel back to the metal which is a better starting point to start pulling the dents out plus filler bonds better to metal than old paint etc
