If you get an allergy to the epoxy your epoxy work is done, friend built an epoxy/fiberglass airplane and even after the place is completed can't be in the hanger with it, without having breathing problems.

My rule is never come in contact, nor breath uncured epoxy, not ever. After it's cured, no problem.
