Hopefully the layers you have already done will still cure properly, as tooling resin actually needs to bake itself with the heat it generates from its exotherm during cure to achieve full mechanical properties. For a one off the mould will probably be ok, so just sand the surface with 80 grit before adding another 2 layers of 450g.

What can you suggest for mould reinforcment?After all layers I was planning to fibreglass in wooden frame in to mould stiffen mould and be able to stand mould.upside down.I was thinking about some kind of ribs to make reinforcment (what kind of material can be used?).
