I'd stay away from acetone as it'll likely mess with the finish and structural integrity. A heat gun may work. If it were me, I'd take the super glue put some on a dowel and practice on that before trying a heat gun, boiling, etc... You need to be careful when warming the blank as that can warp the rod. </p><p></p><p>Cutting right below the tip top might be the best. To do this, use a Dremel cutting wheel, but wrap the area being cut in masking tape. That'll prevent the blank from fraying while being cut. </p><p></p><p>When replacing the tip, don't use hot melt glue. That won't hold in the heat of the summer. Use a 5 minute rod epoxy. It'll give you a little bit of time to set the guide properly and if need be, a heat gun will loosen the glue, but it'll hold in the summer.</p></blockquote><p></p>
