If your floor is covered in one of these materials you will need to strip your floor before you can begin the epoxy process.
The most common cause for uneven epoxy resin is often not using the correct mixing ratio or even using hardener and resin that is too old.

As the saying goes prevention is better than cure and it is nowhere more true than when you are trying to fix uneven epoxy resin or epoxy mistakes.
Remove floor paint if necessary.
