i am a novice i was trying to un solder the worn gold pick up covers off my new les paul studio and i want to know if if i hurt anything
i first tried a sodering gun to loosen the solder joint that holds the cover to the pick up, it finally let go, it took about three minutes
inside one layer of tape came off and it melted what looks like dielectric grease from the pick up
the second pick up i used a small torch on and nothing happened to the pick up at all
my question is do i have to replace the pickup, if not what should i do when i install the new covers
any help would be greatly appreciated i would like to finish the job asap
thanks

thanks for the info, after i posted this i looked at the pick up and determined it was wax and not grease like i first thought, so here is another question, do i have to replace the wax, i am installing new covers, and if so what do i use, and how do i do it ?
thanks for all your help
