I recently got new wraps for two batteries that have slightly damaged wraps, I used a metal tweezer to remove the old wrap. I started from the postive side placing the tip of the tweezer between the old wrap and the white insulator ring being very careful not to touch the positive end with the metal tweezer. Then I came across a youtube video saying that it should be removed from the negative to avoid a short.
So, as long as I did it without any sparks showing or anything, is that enough to be sure that no short happened? and are these batteries safe to use?
