I promised I would send some more info on the consumer test that I had read.
Please read the previous mails in this thread to place the information in
context to avoid repeating info and unneccessary mail.
In fact, don't even read it ;-), it is just here so that I keep my word.

The adhesives in most CD label systems are no water soluble, so you will
have a mess if you attempt to soak them off, since only the paper will
rub off, leaving gooey adhesive behind.
I have, on occasion, removed a label and repositioned or replaced it.
It takes careful even peeling. Unfortun

there is no dye layer -- the adhesion of the metallic film to the dye
is not strong at all.
