    Default Pens with removable clips (and more)

    Hi,

    As some of you know I lacquer pens with urushi. Yes I am crazy.
    Lacquering bespoke or penmaker pens is easy - I get pen disassembled or easy to disassemble. Often no trim to mask, easy.
    But most "series" pens are not so obvious. While trim can be masked, the clip must be removable.
    Pelikans are easy, Montblancs 146/149 - once you have tools - quite easy. Pilots - some easy, som not necesarily. Sailor - idea is simple but execution harder - cap finial is often very difficult to unscrew. Some Opus88 are easy, some sre cemented and impossible. Platinum - 3776 - no way. President and Izumo - easy. etc.
    I made a video on this, and I will be grateful for any tips and trics, any pens I missed. All are in the description of video.

    I have a particular clip that I can't remove. It's a Montblanc Boheme. I would be interested to learn if you have ever managed to remove one and to hear about the tool that you used.

    Meanwhile I will go and watch your video. Thanks.

    Boheme clip is not removable unfortunately. In more "non-removable" than Platinum 3776 - no "hack" for this. I consulted with some pendoctors focusing on MB pens.
