I am finalizing the assembly of my new crossover on my Klipsch 600M and I just have a small question concerning the inductors. Should the red be removed like a membrane like an electric wire or sanded?. If I watch Danny's video, he seems to have silver tips

Sorry that's a very newbie question!!

Thanks

Yes.  Any point of contact that will be soldered, you will have to remove the coating.  Regarding being already tinned, or coating already removed, a lot of that depends upon the manufacturer.  A lot of the Solen inductors still need the coating removed.

The fastest method seems to be scraping with a utility knife, but sandpaper can work also, just a little slower.

thank you good sir !!

The pre-tinned inductors were all from Erse.
Since Erse stopped producing inductors, weve had to switch to Solen, which keep the enamel coating.

Our new manufacturer should be online sometime later this month., And those will be pre-tinned in the same manner as the Erse coils.

Elon is correct tho. The enamel does need to be stripped off to ensure proper contact.

The red color is enamel and an insulator.  High heat will burn it off, but it's safer just to scrape it off. 

... I see Hobb's beat me to it.  On very small, high gauge wire, don't scrap it, burn it.  That's a little trick I learned from Gary Dodd.
