The grout installation is on the contractor. Anyone have an idea how long epoxy grout needs to set before grinding? I know product as this link shows 7-14 days for full cure:

   Anyone know if epoxy haze or spillover would cause issues during lippage grinding?

Not sure if this is correct, I've seen a job like this once and ask a tile installer... if it was to be fixed how would you go about it.

I think Fred has the best answer, But I've heard epoxy grout install is pretty challenging. 

Good luck

   Rescuing a bad tile job for a contractor. Marble tile with quarter inch sanded grout lines. He's willing to pull out the existing grout, but the question is, what should go back in? Unsanded won't hold up that wide.
 
   I forget the reason, not financial, but starting over is not an option.
