Angela, I would scrape it back to the surface it was applied to, and clean up any residue with the appropriate cleaning material. Here's an article that should help:
This is a tough one as usually when it remains sticky, it's because it wasn't mixed properly. If you can, remove it and start over. There isn't a way to fix the sticky that I'm aware of.
i have read you have to remove that sticky epoxy but here is a thought. I’ve done a lot of epoxy projects at this point. I had a strange problem
once and here is what I did. Acetone can be purchased at Walmart, Home Depot, etc and even though you may recognize the name from your fingernail polish remover, the stuff I am talking about does not have oils added to help you fingernails and fingers withstand use of the chemical. Use gloves and thoroughly wipe down the surface with acetone. Allow it to dry. Take water soluble polyurethane and roll or brush onto the surface slowly and carefully to leave the fewest air bubbles and stroke marks. Two coats are probably best because next it needs to be sanded lightly to eliminate brush strokes and patterns from rolling. Clean off sanding dust with a wet paper towel or cloth. When completely dry brush off or vacuum all remaining dust from surface. Prime/paint your base color. Lightly sand surface and remove dust. You are ready to apply decorative effects and fresh epoxy. Make sure you thoroughly stir your epoxy and you absolutely must remix once the epoxy is poured onto your surface. Residue of unmixed epoxy can cling to the sides of your container and you can end up with that residue in your mixed epoxy when you pour. So take your brush or trowel and work the epoxy to ensure whatever is poured onto the surface gets remixed. That is what I did and my project turned out great. If you are working with unpainted wood and want to keep that look I am not sure of the effect. Mine was painted. Good Luck!
