: Here is a thought I had this morning, Paul:

: If you apply a thin layer of new epoxy on top of the apparently

: curing a little better. Chime in y'all, on this thought.
: Personally, I have never had a problem with curing because if I

: new batch.

: Robert N Pruden

I wait till it goes green, hard to the point you can dent it with your thumb nail, not wet anymore, makes a nice chemical bond with the previous layer and you don't have to worry about messing up a wet epoxy job.
