I made a large dining table for my wife. I have two coats of epoxy on
it now. Some of the wood soaked up more resin and has waves in it.
Question is; can I sand the resin and add top coat? Will it still be
Crystal clear after?


depends on the product
depends on how thick the coats are and how thick you want the final
finish to be

two ways to go but first a question

how solid is the marriage

if you answer it is solid then

tell her the uneven surface is to give the table character


if you answer no and making the finish thick is ok

you could place the table perfectly level and build a tape wall
around the edge and pour a final coat of epoxy

vids and info online

look for bar tops

if the finish cannot be thick then work on making the marriage solid

maybe a new vase with flowers on the new table
