I cut off guides (slice along one side of each foot on a tangent to the blank then push the guide over sideways) with a razor blade, unwind any thread left on the blank (which will take the overlying epoxy with it), then soften any epoxy left on the blank with a heat gun (got the idea from the Fuji website) and it will peel right off. The melting point of the epoxy is way below that of the blank, just don't go nuts. It is also a very good way to remove the mounting under a reel seat once you cut the seat off with a dremel.
