Material: Painting under epoxy

Hi,

I am currently thinking about designs to add to a couple of kayaks that are in the planning/early stages.

One design I'm looking at would include some painted details, but I'd want to apply them under the epoxy/glass.

I'll test anything I buy first, but any pointers? Should I use marine enamel or acrylic. Would anything react better or worse to the epoxy, should I seal it first, etc?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
