Is there any way to improve the looks of cloudy epoxy over Kevlar?
 
Is it a blush, or actually cloudy? Did you put the epoxy on yourself? If it is just one layer that you put on, it might be a blush that will come off with a light sanding and a coat of varnish.
 
Sorry for the Short answer ! Totally unlike me !

Yes, More info needed ! (Getting longer !)

Not knowing the circumstances, was the epoxy perhaps applied in high humidity? If working outdoors, always avoid applying epoxy late in the day. As the air cools, moisture is likely to become trapped in the epoxy as it cures.

If the epoxy is only partially cured and is clouding, sometimes judicious application of heat will solve the problem. If the epoxy is fully cured and cloudy, the only remedy I know of is to sand it off. Obviously, you will need to be careful not to sand into the aramid too much.
