Epoxying over chip numbers?

We have several prototypes being built over the next few weeks and
wanted to hide the chip numbers of some of the glue logic. We've
sanded them off up to now, but that's an awful and time consuming way
to do it. A search of the sci.electronics groups came up
empty....amazingly.

Does anyone have any recommendations for covering up the numbers on
plastic and ceramic DIP packages? Loctite's black Prism 410 adhesive
looks good, but we're not sure if it will stick well enough or if it
can be pried off like a "pancake".

Or is sanding still the best option for doing this?

Thanks!
