I understood blush to be an opacification or cloudiness of the epoxy, but perhaps I misunderstood. This seems to have been an adhesion problem. The epoxy remained totally transparent and colorless. I worked in a heated basement at 68- -70 Degrees F.
Because of the beading up and dry spots, the layer is very lumpy bumpy and will have to be well sanded, back to the top of the cloth. I will re-apply and hope the stars are aligned, but I'm doing the same thing I did on the previous coat.
Thanks,
Jay
