The real problem was that I couldn't get it to wrap around edges/corners (just like a 90 degree) to make it look professional. Aside from that, I ended up with an epoxied brush, tried to was it off, but i guess i didn't get all of it. What do you use to clean the brush after using epoxy on it? Acetone?
I'm going to try the kleer kote this weekend, maybe that will go better.

You are not supposede to get it to go around 90 degree bends. Take some of your resin and mix it with some finely cut fiberglass fibers. this will thicken up and dry up the mixture. Take this "flox" and put it in the corners. Use a popsicle stick or something to get a smooth rounded radius instead of an abrupt 90 degree angle.
Put your glass over the layup and then wet it out with your resin.
As for the brushes: Put them in the freezer, it will stop the resin from hardening. Personally i would just get the dollar brushes and throw them away. The only thing i reuse is the squeege and just wash it off at the end of the night.
