Epoxy: Oh my goodness I hope the ratio is right

I think I am done with pumps.
Using West Systems 107 and 105. I decided to put on a seal coat. I have not used the pumps for a while, so I dumped the first mixture just to be safe.
Should have just stopped there.
But no.............
So I have put on a seal coat on my CLC kit which IS going to get finished some time.

SO when will I know and how bad can it be?

Is there some deadly grey area which will look ok then peel off the wood the first time something happens? Like when I finally do get out in some textured water. Who me worry!?!

If I have to take it off, do I Just!!!!!!sand to the bare wood and next time measure by volume?
Thanks for you accurate and gentle responses.

For a happy thought Wolfgang Brinck have a date in June to build a boat together, see if you go to a class the boat gets done. :)
