After I hit the plug with the spray clear I don't touch them again without powder free gloves I don't thin my e-tex so I can't comment on that, but if you use it after you mix you should have plenty of open time.
Go to HF and invest in a $10 heat gun. If the e-tex starts to thicken up too much hit it lightly with the heat gun on low, that will let you finish the plug your on. As soon as you finish adding the e-tex to a plug hit it lightly a couple of times with the heat gun on low (don't get too close), this will get it glass clear with no bubbles.
Sorry to get long winded, I've almost stroked out at times with anger at the epoxy step. 
Good luck,

MS,
Thanks for the info. I have a heat gun so I'll try heating them once I'm done. I just went out into my shop and brought my can of clear spray in to warm up and I'll hit the plugs I have ready now for epoxy and let them dry overnight and try epoxying again tomorrow.
Thanks for the help guys, Mark
