    most are solved by winding the FL die down a little more

    lubing the expander ball or inside the case necks should help that firm lift.
    I forget that old dies dont need it and new dies kind of need a degrease and lube to remove the stuff keeping it from rusting in transport/sports shops
    most of the time they are fine tho


    I use a cue tip
