New ACON FlowFlex LFTs - anyone else having a nightmare?

I ordered new LFTs online yesterday and received a new type today. What a nightmare! There are warnings all over the instructions about not getting the buffer Sourton on your skin or in your eyes but even with having full dexterity I couldn't get the foil off. The glue is just far too strong, I ended up resorting to taking a knife to it in the end. Has anyone else had these and had the same issue?

Yes, but only with a couple of the tubes - most of them were ok. Maybe try a different one. I just used a knife on the ones I couldn't get off, but then it's a bit tricky to get the lid on. Didn't read the instructions about not getting the solution on skin though!
