Strip: Sticky epoxy resin

I think I began sanding to level the surface of my hull too soon. When sanding, the epoxy resin loads up the paper quickly and also leaves gummy residue on the boat. How long is it customary to wait for the resin to cure before sanding? I have used RAKA epoxy resin mixed 50/50. What is the recommended procedure to remove the areas of gummy residue ?

Thanks,
Mark
