I dont use Sys3 epoxy so I am assuming that you are using their "Mirror Coat", which is 100% solids. That would allow the use of heat as a remedy for an off batch..even without heat eventually it...

It sound like to me the mix may have been off. I don't mean wrong proportions but the mix may have been incomplete. I use alot of epoxy and have learned that the best way to insure a good mix is to...
