Step 2: Preparation by sanding

Prep the bottle cap and the magnet for gluing by sanding the underside of the bottle cap and the topside of the magnet.

Sanding helps the glue adhere, particularly when using hot glue... the bottle cap liners are, by nature, pretty good at repelling anything, so sanding is necessary.

you could theoretically remove the liner, but it can be a bit difficult, and as long as you sand, isn't really a necessary step.

Indeed, the rubber liners can be difficult to remove, but they're a snap if you use an electric griddle to heat them up first. Just be sure to use a leather work glove to protect your hand from the hot caps.
