...Or maybe I should use a squeegee instead
: of a roller and work it more?

No epoxy/glass layer is completely transparent, but careful squeegee work after rolling on the epoxy will help force out those tiny bubbles that adhere to the yarns and remove excess resin.

I don’t believe that the Pro-Set systems are formulated for clear coating.
