You will want to rid of the paint and clear first to get a good bond for your epoxy to bond. You will have to sand it good or use some sort of paint stripper.

Really? I would have thought just sanding with some 220 really well would be enough for most of our applications. As long as there is no shine to the paint and or primer I would feel pretty confident with it. IF the primer and paint were applied correctly to begin with that is.

Is this for real?? Have you seen repair/rework done on composites such as boats, slats, fairings etc. All paint have to be removed completely around the repair areas before any good bonding can take place for the resin to adhere structurally.
