Air inhibits the non-waxed surface of laminating resin from curing. Even after the subsurface has cured. The next layer will chemically bond to it as one. The sticky surface of non-waxed laminating resin can't be sanded. It will clog the paper, even 24 grit. Waxed finishing resin has a wax in it...
