It's a term I learned here on LE from Cosmo and Smiley, I think... You're definitely on the right track with your guess, except that you do have to heat up the punty a *tiny* bit. Then blow on it to cool it down. The bit you want to attach it to for stretching out (or as a *very* temporary handle) should be soft-hot but not glowing-hot. Touch them gently until you see them press together, then pull back a touch. If your timing is right, you should be able to gently snap off the punty once the other side cools down, or after blowing on the seal. It's very handy for all kinds of things!
