Anyone know for sure if: the core of the running line portion of AF 40+ is a braid; can it's cover be stripped using nail-polish remover or similar? I've also e-mailed Airflow w/ this ?

Solvent Strip

Tried acetone (which is the active ingredient in nail-polish remover). Didn't do a thing. This evening, I got a prompt response from Rajeff Sports telling me solvent won't do much and the core is a braided mono.

I ended up making may connector loops out of a doubled 50# super strong braid; tied a double nail knots with the doubled braid, and a bowline with some extra tricks for the connecting loop.
