I fixed it now. I had to use some sandpaper on the ring and the thread. Then lots of lubricant and good ol' brute force.
Ah, okey. Now I get it. How the he** do I remove this without damaging the glass?
You use something actually made for use around glass lenses, not something made from who knows WHAT rubber-like material that has foreign material in it that will make nice semi-circular scratches on the front lens element...
You can be absolutely sure the tapered gum rubber lens ring removal tool from Micro-Tools is abrasive free on purpose!
How big a risk-taker are you?
