Thanks Skippy and Eric,
On the pitting if you use the latest VOC clear it causes pitting because it has wax in it. I switched to the envirotex clear and that problem went away. I also wipe the whole plug down lightly with denatured alcohol before applying epoxy.

Another tip is to epoxy down the eyes down before applying the envirotex. I would get tons of air trapped behind the eyes while it was spinning. The trick is to put just enough epoxy to hold the eye in place but, not enough to come to the top of the eye.
