curing issues with new product

Hi there. Thanks for this website. I am not new to the expoxy seen, but not veteren (about 3 years) I have had two issues recently I can’t put a finger on. I ;o been working on tumblers, using a turner.
#1. Two Cups came out wavy. On one the finish was very uneven, the other was almost like a honeycomb, where it clumped in some spots and nothing in others.
#2, Two cups that 12 hours on the turner still haven’t curred, one still dripping. For these I dropped alcohol ink into the epoxy as it turned. I really don’t think that I messed up the 50/50 mixture. But that would explain it. Could too much alcohol ink cause this?

This was the first time using a new product. I have always used “Amazing Casting Products” in the past, but this was “bloombee”.
With issues with the first 4 cups I have used the Bloombee, I think I will wait for the the Amazing Casting product before moving forward. Unless you have any ideas? I am planning on sanding these down and trying again.
