Glasscast 50. Pouring onto an already cured river table

Hi guys. I've just poured my first river table with some nice oak. I Maybe didn't leave enough time between pours as the temperature is 13/14 degrees. It was probably too sticky still. Anyways its shrunk and I need more resin to Complete the table. It's my first time ever working with resin. If anyone has tips about pouring onto an already cured river would be greatly appreciated. Be it sanding etc. Thanks, Daniel

First of all try and get some heat onto the area to try and see if heat helps it cure off better.  If not, if its just surface tack, purple methylated spirits can help remove the tack.  Failing that you may need to sand through the tack to the resin underneath which hopefully should be good.
