Is it just me, or does anyone else run into problems trying to remove the ring from 9's & T52's? A few times Ihave damaged the wrapper in the process of ring removal.

I actually brought this up with JD himself here on CBID about a year ago. Several people agreed and he actually went and talked to the guys at his factory in Esteli. The conclusion is that the glue adheres to the non-glossy paper too well and is basically impossible to get off without cutting or ripping the band. He offered to send some clean, unused bands if anyone wanted them for collection purposes. He also asked the factory to use a little less glue, but I haven't see a noticable difference.

Basically, it is what it is. Probably wont change.

If that is the worst part on the LP line, I'm fine with it! LOL Just use a cuticle scissors or something to cut the band if you cant do it without screwing up the wrapper.

Those bands are some of the hardest ones I've tried to remove without ripping. I believe I have been successful maybe twice! LOL But I will still continue to smoke them! I just try and let the cigar burn as close as possible to get that glue hot to break the seal!

Slide the band off and gently steam the glued area.
