Cabinet scrapers are by far the best tools for removing epoxy runs and dust bumps. With just overnight of cure on the epoxy it is really quite easy to shave off the epoxy but it is still worth while scraping after full cure. A scraper is not only faster than sanding, but even more importantly you can remove just the drip without sanding into the glass around it.

: Am I right to sand these down ? It seems too much for a "fairing

: I'd appreciate the forum advice before the epoxy sets too hard!
