Dwayne:
I can't tell you if you have the protective coating on back or not, but
I had the same dilemma when I built mine. After examining it with
several magnifying glasses, I decided there wasn't one and I proceeded
to install the panel. Either I was correct or it doesn't make much
difference, because mine seems to work fine. The front protective
coating isn't all that obvious either, but I could eventually see it.
Look for the edges. You are right that the manual indicates there MAY
be a covering on the back, which adds to the uncertainty. After the
fact, I'm wondering if someone DID have a rear protective coating on
theirs and, if so, perhaps they could describe it to the rest of us.
For all I know, it might be opaque or otherwise real obvious that it's
there.
Hope this helps.
