Ken,
Rigid epoxy will flex to some extent. The epoxy shouldn't break away from the substrate, unless a secure bond was never there from the start.

The overkill approach with the UV light seems to work. At some point I'll need to better determine the actual time needed.
With the flexible epoxy if I really pick at it I can get an edge to start coming up; once it starts it's easy to peel off. That said, given the deliberate effort required, I don't consider it a problem. Is this consistent with your experience?

Yes, in my experience, once a good adhesion's been established, it takes a deliberate effort to separate the epoxy from the substrate.

Try laminating the paper, then cutout the badges, and dome them, it does not leech into the paper that way.
