Yeah, guys, I figured it wasn't blush because it is Maas, and, if it did blush, wouldn't it be all over, rather than a spot?
It was less than 1 day, and sanded (because I had some thicker areas where I was about to glass; then extended epoxy beyond the glass).
2 ideas, as I've been thinking. What if the epoxy ratios were off, slightly? Or, maybe it's my re-used cotton rags. They've been washed, but could be leaching out some old contaminant?
: Maas slow shouldn't be blushing. I think 72 hours is too long. Are

: boat? This dries and leaves oil or salt behind.
