Sanding into fiberglass

I just sanded the deck and was wondering if it matters if you hit the fiberglass? On some of the edges the fiberglass is showing, should I re-epoxy these areas or can I just varnish over it. Will the varnish make the sanded epoxy transparent again? Will the strength be compromised due to the top being sanded? What should I do?
