Sand until you expose all of the high spots, then add more epoxy and do it over and over until the low spots are as high as the high spots.

I like that, Mike. I had been wondering how I'm going to avoid exposing the weave again after adding more epoxy, or how to determine how much more epoxy I'll need to add. This is the answer. Thanks.

BUT- like Etienne said, there are degrees of fussiness. What's yours?

Unfortunately, it's pretty high. Did I mention that I have 430 workdays (over 800 hours) invested in this project so far?
