I don't think it is that big of a problem. The epoxied areas are a bit raised, so I kinda use them like layout fluid and feather them in with the dry areas. The orbital sander works pretty slow, so as long as I am careful, I *shouldn't* make many divots. And there is a natural waviness anyways with the surface due to the wider rib spacing. I guess the final verdict will come very shortly. I should be able to see what the surface will more or less look like after the seal coat.. which is coming very soon.
