by Misty
I used a highe gloss epoxy on a wood project. Now it looks eastern. Not what I was going for. Can I lightly sand it and go ober with low gloss epoxy or do I have to start over and remove everything?

    Hi there! You could always try sanding it and adding the low gloss, but its probably going to turn out better if you just take it all off and start over again to assure you're getting the look you want. Good luck!

    You can lightly sand it and paint it with a primer and then paint it with the gloss paint that you wanted in the first place. You don't have to strip it off and start new!
