I noticed in Buttkicker's YT videos he removes one surface layer, then spends a lot of effort combing out the cotton after inserting it into the coil. It seems to me that removing BOTH outer layers would accomplish the same thing more easily and quickly, and all the meticulous combing could be minimized.
I've been cutting my strips slightly wider, then removing both outer layers, rolling a bit, and have been satisfied with the results. I can't say objectively if it performs better but it's certainly quicker, easier, and performs just as well as leaving one or both outer layers on.
