I'm building my first kayak ever and now I'm turning slighly mad. I built a very beutiful deck in mahogny and pine. The problem is that when I fiberglassed it, two problems occured: 1. A lot of tiny airbubbels is trapped under the fiberglass. I could not see them before the resin was cured. (this problem is one I can live with) 2. When I applyed the next layer of epoxy it became "white". It turned more and more white as the resin started to harden. The problem is not i the surface of the epoxy, but in the epoxy it selves. I scraped and whiped it off as good as I was able too. But still there is a lot of "white" epoxy.

The question is if it's possible to do anything about the problem now after the epoxy is cured? Is it possible to remove the fiberglass? Or do I have to see that my mahogny-deck is ruined for ever? (I tried to put on a new layer of epoxy this afternoon and it turned out just fine).
