Thanks Roger. All the other ones are fine. Just those two. im guessing either when the rod was rested on the floor and the reel put pressure on those two guides, or when it was in my rod rack, the guides were pressed up against the wall. Thanks

Uh, now that touch em again, i see that they are too easy to move. i guess when i put the rod in the rack in my house the two guides were up against my wall. that makes sense to me... im gonna re wrap cuz its too easy to move. thanks for the answers guys. I really appreciate it.

Hey guys, I hope this isnt too serious... i had wrapped my guides this tuesday, and they were fine, i picked up the rod today to static test it again. The rod is acid wrapped. The stripper guide and the transition guide seemed to have shifted to the left a lot i can move them back to place and i was gonna wait till this weekend to epoxy em'. are they not wrapped tight enough or something?

Hey guys, I just finished wrapping a rod all in black, and i look back and most of the guides have little fibers sticking out. i havent epoxied over it yet, but i was wondering if i can remove those hairs carefully without screwing the rod up. Thanks.

I was just wondering if there is anyway to speed up the drying process of my guide and cross wraps without harming the epoxy or wrap etc... Any and all answers appreciated.
