I have some deep scratches and dings on the bottom ofmy strip built kayak and have put three coats of west system over these areas. How long should I wait before I varnish the whole bottom? I kind of remember that the epoxy out gasses for 96 hours after it cures to touch. If this is true should I wait the 4 days before i start varnishing?
