One layeer of 3 oz. glass applied using West epoxy. When epoxy setup I applied another coat. After 3 days I sanded it and started seeing the milky spots. I applied two more coats of epoxy and did a final sanding before varnish and the blotchy milky finish got a lot worse.

Do you wash with water between epoxy coats to remove amine blush ?
Or wet sand with lots of water?
