In Response To: Re: Epoxy: Gummy epoxy (howard)

I've now discovered a few more areas affected. It is only evident when I started to scrape the surface, and the epoxy sort of comes off in little rolls. It am using the West system 105 with the 207 clear hardener. It worked fine on the hull but the deck has this problem I don't see how I can remove the epoxy and the cloth down to the wood without leaving terrible unsightly divots in the surface. And even then I'm not sure how I would remove it. A scraper? Can't sand it down. How would you patch the cloth? And how would you assure that it doesn't happen again if you don't know the cause?
