Anyone tried removing the plastic end cap? I'm concerned this cap will keep me from getting into corners and along the edges. Thank you.

no, I don't think that'd be a good idea, would hasten the tip's demise. perhaps magnify would help?

Me neither until I had issues with the o-ring on the inside of cap. We would put cap on and click it twice but turn back to take cap off and it would just fall off like it wasn't sealing down.

Sorry, I didn't experience such a problem. I just turned the top and it opened up. Perhaps running hot water around the rim of the cap might help.

It doesn't stick our at all past the round end.tiu have to use a fingernail to slide it out. My adapters did not come with a cap so can't answer that.

I have not noticed this problem myself. The cap comes off pretty easy, at least as well as most other pens.

I've bought two of these. The first one, I was not able to. The second one didn't really have that problem.My experiences from the first one was that no matter how tightly I screwed the cap on, it would still leak if the bottle was on its side. I never had an issue from either of mine leaking from the cap when it was right-side up. If it leaks from that position, you probably should get a new one because that's not supposed to happen whatsoever.

Hi Jon. I would, but that's just me. Think of it like a marker. Without the cap, it'll dry out and be less effective.

The screw that is used is a Phillips head, and the plastic cap has a "stem" that is shaped to conform to the head of the screw. Try rotating the cap until it "settles" into the shape of the screw head. It might still be somewhat loose, but it's the best you can hope for.

The cap is easily screwed off, but you have to be careful to pull the red latch up or it can catch your finger and give you a good pinch. One of those things that doesn't happen twice though :-)

It should just twist off. In my experience, aftermarket caps are either too tight or too loose.

The top cap is a separate piece and larger in diameter than the stem mount dia. This means you can't take the stem off the top!! Just a mention as I didn't think of that. Not a huge issue, but something to be aware of

open the round cap on the bottom....it's hard so use a screw driver or something else.....fill with water or sand (i used water,cheaper and equally efffective)...put cap back on.....also its heavy so have the base close to wherever it's going to be...good luck

I usea a clear silicone adhesive on the top edge of the post and pressed the cap down over it. They have been on for seeral months and appear to be permanently attached. You coulc also drill small holes in the lower edge and attach them with screws but I believe the silicone works better.

I bought this for my mother because I liked the black one I have. I believe you click the top portion down or trust it. What looks like a cap is not ment to be removed to cover the top.

It looks like you can unfasten the end caps using the tip of a scissors and pressing one side of it. I don't know how to describe it but here is a link to a you tube video that demonstrates it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDr7-7NAblY&feature;=youtube_gdata_player

Hello Rick. I think you don't have problem becuase I installed the caps and I hadn't got any problem. Hope my answer help you. Best regards, Germán
