And most tackle shops will replace it for about $10 plus cost of guide.

Ahh... don't make too big of a deal of replacing your guide(s) Warren. I
just did one on one of my spinning rods yesterday. I'm not really picky
about how they look, as long as they're functional. All in all, I think it
came out fairly well.

You guys are all missing the boat here. The guy has lost the ceramic
interior of the guide, not a wrap-problem.

As far as I know he needs to replace the eye itself, exactly the practice
that I plan on learning shortly.

If the guide is not loose just coat the wrap with varnish, color
preservative should be not necessary because it was applied before..
