Ok well I put a candle a little under the barrel to warm the glue up, only to find that there is and orange cap covering anOther orange tip, how do i get this one off?? I tried the candle thing but it still won't budge, also if anyone knows if right = tight on the orange tip, that'd be helpful too.

I use boiling water. Its probably use paint left over.

I would not be using candle flame. I highly recommend using boiling water. I was able to take of my hardest orange tips.
First bring enough water to cover the tip to a boil.
Then hold the end under the boiling water for about 2 min.
Pull it out and get something to grip it with (towel, glove etc.) because it will be scorching hot!
Begin twisting in short movements back cw and ccw.
You actually don't need to know which way it unscrews using this technique.
Keep repeating these steps and you will feel the tip loosening up and you will know which way it unscrews as you apply the quick turns from cw to ccw.
Hope this helps!
Good luck!
