Pete,
If you worked the epoxy too much with the squeege or foam brush, very fine bubbles may have been trapped in the epoxy. Its not hard to do if you're working fast wetting 6 oz fabric. This will give the epoxy a frosted look especially in the thicker areas. If this is the case the best you can do is sand the thicker areas down to the top of the glass. Like your other responses, don't sand away the glass (unless you sand it completely off and patch it with new).
