In Response To: paint over epoxy (Tom Kurth)

I bought Interlux Interthane (two part polyurethane) to paint the bottoms of our two kayaks and Interthane clear for the topsides. I've put on the last coat of epoxy and am now waiting one week, which the paint manufacturer recommends, before painting.

: If one is going to paint over epoxy, must the epoxy be allowed to cure first?
: If so, how long--complete cure? What kind of paint can/should be used?
: Raka resin with non-blush hardener if it makes a difference. Thanks, Tom
