Use a heat gun to get it really hot, it should soften up and come apart. I would do it outside though or somewhere with good venting... I never had the impression that epoxy gives off much in the way of fumes, but I heated some as I was putting it on the other day and my smoke alarm went off after 30 seconds.....

if you use a heat gun on epoxy it should start to crack. and you can pick away at it. and it will fall apart. you have to get it HOT... and i would do it out side and it does give off some nasty smells.... hope it works well for you..
