I have some areas that are very milky and I suspect that they are caused by bubbles from the original layup. I suppose that the only way to deal with those would be to sand right down to the wood and start over?

To continue this one step further do you think that it is a good idea to add a fill coat or two before laying a second layer of glass (to make feathering easier?
