Are you supposed to remove the clear plastic backing on this?

You can remove the plastic wrapping. It ships with the case to protect it from scuffs and scratches prior to reaching the customer.

I no longer see it on mine therefore say yes especially if it looks as packaging.

The back of the metal plate has adhesive on it. Just peal and stick. It seems to come off pretty clean. I replaced onto another camera with no problems. DO NOT SCRAPE ANY RESIDUE OFF. If there is a little residue, put a little WD40 on a paper towel and gently wipe it off. Good luck.

No. I used some soft plastic packing material for mine. Works perfect so far. Happy to help.

Yes, the backing is removable, though not easily. The roll does not stick to itself and will unspool if not cared for.

NO! no matter what. Do not remove it if you mess up or if its slightly misaligned because if you try to take it off the the area which you peeled from will lose its adhesion and look weird.

No, the clear plastic is just on the back; there's a cutout for the camera lens.

Did you remove the plastic protective sheet on the outside of the lens before you first used it?

I actually have not tried to remove it. I believe it is supposed to be removable.

Yes, just follow the directions. You need to remove a large area of the labels to feed it through. Pull them off so you only have the clean backingg.

No, the hard top must be removed, but there is just a few screws and is easy to remove. The enclosure is worth removing the top.

Hi Pat, I put mine with the plastic side on the outside. I'm not sure it matters though.

It appears to be removable, but it isn't an on-and-off type thing. There are 2 screws on each side that could be removed, and what looks like a plastic part to press in and remove, but I couldn't get mine to work. Like the other review said, it pushed back easily

Yes. I saw these little "scratches" too but as it would turn out its just the light reflecting off the plastic a certain way. If you can just ignore them or you can do what I did and just remove the plastic screen protector from the case all together.

Are you talking about the clear plastic on the door and inside the unit. You should have pulled that off before use.

There's a small cutout section on one of the corners. Pry on that cutout and the back will come off with some pressure. Don't worry, you won't break it.

Yes, it can be removed if you make a mistake. Just peel it off and start over.
