Hi Richard,

Thanks for your note and clarification.  When John mentioned the resurfacing machine, I was actually thinking ahead in terms of possible future use of it though that wasn't clear in my note.  I agree with you:  I don't think resurfacing the label side would be possible--or desirable--but it's something that I'm really not going to consider.

Cheers,
Frank

Hi, John, and Frank,

In reading the two paragraphs quoted below, there is some ambiguity that the resurfacing machine might be used on the label side. That is not possible, is it? I don't think on a single-layer CD that can be done. 
Since I was confused slightly, I thought I'd mention it publicly in case anyone else might be.

The confusion stems from Frank saying the PVC is only on the label side and then John saying not to use it for removing large foreign objects like a PVC layer.

Cheers,

Richard
