yes you can remove the caps, it is slim pad so it would be hard to use flowable sillicone. also mine pulses which I hear is common problem.

Yes on both, but the flowable wont last as long as it would on a metal. Any string that isnt 100% cotton should be fine. My favorite string is kitty nylon, whips fine, lasts forever, and when broken in doesnt hurt the fingers. Great trustworthy string, especially when you paln to bring a yoyo outside. You dont have to be as worried about it breaking off the string.
