a really stupid question
 

OK lads, now a real stupid question.

When you buy a new rod with a part, or whole, cork butt section do you
remove the plastic covering that is so nicely and tightly shrink wrapped on
it. I have two new rods and the plastic is so tight and neat I have left it
on but assume it should be removed really.

Yes, in fact imo you should insist on removing the film in the shop to check
the quality of the cork before purchase. Too many turn out to be soft and
powdery.

Cheerio,
