If you soaked him and had him slither through a rag or paper towel there should not be bits hanging on. Trying to remove an eye cap is not something I'd try unless I was very confident. Some recommend waiting until the next shed, and with proper moisture the eye cap will shed. There has been a suggestion on forums that a piece of Scotch type tape pressed against the cap and gently pulled off will bring the cap with it. I have read that soaking a snake for 30 minutes and then placing it in a damp pillow case will allow it to rub the cap off. I had to soak a hatchling a few years ago that had both eye caps retained and then gently lifted the eye caps with a finger nail.
