Jim,
I prefer to remove both labels so I don't have to waste time protecting them during the etching, paintfill and clean-up process.
Usually, by customer request, the only front labels that get left on are those oo the more expensive brands and vintages. A good majority of customers will provide a cheap bottle of wine, so they typically want to disguise that fact and have both labels removed.
I ask customers to pay special attention to the colors and design of the neck label, because in most cases, it stays. It is that label that will often dictate what the paintfill color(s) will be.

Good info David. Thanks.
BTW, the contractors are taping and mudding the shop walls today. I put 1/2" plywood on the bottom 8' then sheetrock for top two feet and the ceiling. Upstairs is all sheetrock. The rain has finally stopped, hopefully the water will go away soon. They will be returning to their normal jobs now the rain stopped so expect them to be done today or tomorrow. All my equip has been moved and is inaccessible except the laser which still is in my house. I will reinstall the blast cabinet first, then one of the guys is going to come back and help me build a cabinet for the IS400. So I can see the light at the end of the tunnel, very small but visible. Just hope its not a train! I continue to turn business away but did get some mother's day stuff done.
