There is degrees of stick. There's 'Post Its' and there epoxy. My acetate (this would be the clear plastic pages we used to print on for display on the overhead projector, the stuff that melts if your put it in the laser printer instead of the inkjet) sheets definately stick to my epoxy work. However, the miniscule effort needed to seperate a sheet from semi or fully cured epoxy is a lot closer to the 'Post it' side of the graph. The finish it leaves on the epoxy is smooth and shiny. Pygmy actually sent some in their kit to put between the epoxy and the weight when butt scarfing the panels.
Earlier this year I began a quest to find a plastic that indeed would bond to epoxy, or an adhesive that would bond epoxy to plastic, and thus far I am unsuccessful. The point being if its plastic it aint gonna stick to epoxy.
