You are in luck!  Polyester will (usually) NOT cure in the presence of  epoxy 
(even already cured), but epoxy generally cures over cured  polyester.  Good 
Lift!

Still looking for some rules of thumb regarding compatibility. Got a 20-year
old glass/glassed-wood fuse that, best guess, is polyester, and I may have to
do some minor repairs/filling on it here and there. I don't use stinky
polyester, the wife would never allow it, only epoxy resin, but, are there 
potential
problems mixing between the two?  Small repairs, filling, sanding, repainting.
What's the word?


Look here: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=431238 It can 
be done.
