Glass heavier than 6-8 oz. will not go clear in epoxy.




I don't know what 6-8 oz is in real units but here is a 21 year
old boat that has some 360 g/sqm of UDWR glass in epoxy on each
side of the Western Red Cedar. Looks OK to me but your mileage
may vary.

I think the OP's problem is contaminated glass.

33 g/sg m is about 1 oz.
Hence 360g/sqm is about 11 oz cloth.
