You can either pour the GlassCast 3 when the previous resin layer has cured to the firm but tacky stage or if you wait until it has gone hard, you will need to sand the surface and clean before pouring.

It's definitely a lot harder now, just ordered a load of fine papers to get it to a nice finish! Thanks for your help.
