no need for sanding if the epoxy is 1-3 days old, after than just scuff it with some 180 and you'll be golden. The filler pretty much welds itself to the epoxy when applied during the first few days.

thank you. its been over 7 days now so 180 is the magic number?

I think that would be a good choice, because 180 is good for blocking primer. You will need some anyway!

A lot of people just use a red Scotchbrite pad.
It works real good on aged epoxy.
